In case you haven't been paying attention

We're all going to lose our homes (http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/n/a/2008/02/26/national/a020309S77.DTL&tsp=1)
Which is fine because we can't sell them for enough anyway (http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/n/a/2008/02/26/national/a060630S15.DTL)
Which is probably because we can't afford to improve them anymore (http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/n/a/2008/02/26/financial/f031613S88.DTL)
 
Don't worry though, I'm sure if the National Realtors Association keeps running those ads about how it's a great time to buy a house, we can overcome all this economic foolishness and get right back on the Stupid-Unrealistic-House-Appreciation-Coaster.
 
Right?
