	Quote from Marcus L S on 5/22/2008 at 9:02 PM: Understatement of the year. That was the best college football game I have ever seen. The previous Rose Bowl between Texas and Michigan was a hellava game as well (38-37 Texas on that last-second field goal ). I'm still ~~pissed~~ amazed by Vince Young's ability to repeatedly turn third-and-9 into a guaranteed first down run. Steers the car back onto the road Hey Dragon, how's the condo huntin' goin'?

Actually, I was pretty pleased with the direction this thread was going. That 2006 Rose Bowl game was so painful for me to watch, but I have to agree with the rest of you that Vince Young was just incredible. That was his day. I'm in a holding pattern right now for the condo hunt. I'm being kind of picky. There are all of 8 condos on the market that meet my minimum requirements, and none of them are really doing it for me. I need to reassess next week.

I just had one of those "what the hell were we talking about?" moments. It's okay to be picky. You need to be able to live with your decision.

	Okay, so I'm still obsessing over condos. I found a 2 bedroom/2 bath top floor condo in Torrance in a good complex that I'm going to take a look at tomorrow. Yesterday I went to go visit a friend who lives in the building, and was very happy with the common areas - lots of nice landscaping, really clean, very safe, etc. Plus, it's right across the street from a park with a .9 mile jogging trail around it. Right now, I have to drive 20-30 minutes to get to a safe place to jog outside. It would be so nice to live in a town where people don't throw things at you from their cars as they speed by. MTA: I tried to put photos in, but looks like they won't link. Bummer.

	Good luck, Amy! Wow, you do need to find a safe place to live! I take that for granted, I guess. When we visit Boston, we have to remember to lock our car doors. A place to run that close would be nice, too. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you!

	Good luck Amy!!!!!

(Hermosa/Manhattan) Manhattan is definitely out, but still considering Redondo. I'm keeping an eye on Hermosa, but it would probably be too much of a stretch for me. The alternative would be to wait a few more months while I save up more money and see if the market drops any more.

My familiarity of those three communities is derived primarily from drunken rollerblading from Manhattan Beach, though Hermosa, and on to Redondo. Therefore, my memories/impressions of these places are steeped in awesomeness, but are highly suspect.

Good luck, Amy--I hope you find a wonderful place to live (and for us to visit, heh ).

	I went to go look at the condo in Torrance today, and was pretty happy with it. I'm going to try to post some photos here - hopefully they come out okay. Beach front, it ain't. It isn't too far of a trip though - a little less than 3 miles. There are renters there now, hence the mismatched furniture and lack of pictures on the wall.

	That looks pretty nice...love the clubhouse and fireplace. It seems really nice and open and bright too with that vaulted ceiling. I like floorplans like that--good use of space and nice for having people over. Someday I want a house with a kitchen that opens into a great room. I'm a fan of fewer, larger rooms. Right now we live in a little old house that is technically 4 bdrm, even though 2 of the rooms are not even usable they are so small. If we were going to stay here long term I would want to knock out a wall to the hallway between the rooms and make the larger room useable and turn the smaller one into a walk-in closet.

	Nice. It's much prettier than the outside of my condo, which sort of looks like a prison.
