Wow. The home has "freeze damage". I had no idea that's how that happened! Out here in the west we call it vandalism. The boarded up window, the broken stair banister, the graffiti. But maybe that was all caused by the fridge... with the doors broken off!
There can only be so many people with that name in Saint Paul, MN. Poor Trin.
Every week I check out the listings for Detroit. It boggles my mind that entire city blocks can be bought for less than a grand. On the plus side, that city's downward spiral offers a wealth of material for this blog.
I must tell you, I stumbled upon your hilarious blog last year. I LOVE it! If I am having a horrific day, I simply visit your blog. It instantly brings a smile to my face.
Your humor and wit blows me away. Keep up the good work, girl. What would we do without such gloriously bad realty listings!???!!
Mabey that sais "Pick" like "pick of the litter"....I gues that's not much better.

Well at least Trin knows who to talk to about this, and set it all straight. Evidently the culprit is named Freeze. The listing does say it has "Freeze" damage.
Wow and the price it got too! Heck I paid a lot less for my house in great condition with lots of land. Guess it was the neighborhood that got that price.

...funnily enough, "Trin" is my nickname.
I don't live in Minnesota, however, so I don't believe this one was referring to me.
Don't cry Trin, I'm sure your Mommy still loves you.

Could be "Thin" and should be read "thin as a D***" or maybe "Thin is a Ac(ruined ampersand)(two musical notes). Can become very cryptic. Maybe its inverted and his name is D***, and it should be "D*** is a thin (sth)"?
OK I'll shut up now...

[Image] Hey, Trin? There's something someone wanted you to know, but was too shy to tell you in person so instead he wrote it on a wall, listed the house for sale, made sure Cathy would find it and send it to me, and hoped you would see it here.
Sorry, Trin. That's a tough way to find out. And on St. Valentine's Day, too.
"Poor Trin. Or maybe Tkin."

That's a potentially very damaging frieze.
