That is a great story 240, but would you say they were in denial? Many people in housing markets across the country foolishly believed housing values would continue to rise. Your prescience shows you were playing closer attention to the facts than your classmates, but would you say they were in denial, simply defending their position, or stupid?
Have you been in touch with any of your former classmates? I’d love to hear what they have to say now.
Any more denial stories out there?
Years ago, I said George Bush was an idiot, he'd be the worst president ever, would run the country into the ground, ...and no foreign head of state would have any respect for him....
Then after 911, I told people the biggest attack on American freedoms would come from her own government...
Then I told people there were no WMDs in Iraq, that it was simply a pack of lies and an excuse for war...
Then I told people that the Republican party had been hijacked by an evil cabal of madmen...
No one believed me... some on this very board (who shall remain nameless) called me "Anti-American" for even daring to so much as whisper the truth.
{sigh} What a difference 8 yrs of hell makes huh? Finally... Vindication! Only 5 more days to go.
