Reading the Fine Print Matters!
The Lovely Mrs. G. and I are looking forward to house shopping in a year or so. We know exactly what we want in a new home. (Her: a fenced yard for a dog, enough room so that we can’t touch the neighbor’s house from inside ours. Me? An in-ground swimming pool. That’s all I need.)
Anyway, we watch House Hunters on TLC faithfully every week (shut up – I am NOT a nerd!), trying to decide if we were in the wide-eyed buyer’s position, would we buy that unique fixer-upper, or drop the dough on the nice place with modern amenities? We know all about a house having “good bones”, and what wonderful things 5 gallons of paint will do to a place.
But here’s a house ad that I saw featured on The Tonight Show's Web site of a place where I couldn’t live, based solely on the street name.
I’m hoping that it’s just a typo. Otherwise, it’d be a good idea if the guys just remain indoors at all times.

I have some friends who live on French Broad Cove. Maybe that's the next street over.
