It’s been a pretty slow writing day for me today.  I’ve been reading a lot online about various topics.  Below is what’s caught my eye in the past few days (minus of course the unusually high amount of items that have been out on the Twins in part to Santana, Hunter and Garza).

Is Johan Santana Declining?

Healthy, wealthy and wise

Bad ideas whose time came: All-time worst company domain names

Foreclosure: Daily Doom and Gloom

Now A Second Auctioneer Gets It

Falling prices may lead to higher sales

As you can see, I’m all over the board with my reading.  Although, I didn’t list even 1/3rd of the articles I’ve been reading about the Twins.  In those readings, I’ve heard it all - the Twins got robbed, the D-Rays got robbed, Santana is over the hill, the Twins trade demands are crazy, it’s all there.  I’m not sure I can remember a time the Twins were more talked about besides the days of contraction.

Most of my reading has been sports related.  However, I’ve been ratcheting up my attention to the sub-prime mortgage situation and the effect it is having on mortgage foreclosures.  It’s been an interesting few months.  It’ll really be interesting to see how things play out into the spring market.  Interestingly enough, our phone is starting to ring with people ready to sell, some ready to buy, and an assortment of tire kickers.  Maybe, just maybe, we’ve hit peak?
