That's a cool pic!!  That was truly the SBG of the 20's.  Check out THIS LINK to learn about the history of that photo.

I like their objective:

"to promote and foster a sentiment of fraternity among those whose domes of thought protrude through and tower above the foliage that affords shade and adornment"

I had to remove the drug lab and hydroponics setup.  Also had to soak the bloodstain out of the concrete from the suicide that I was not told about when I bought the place (also a murder in my bedroom). 

JUST DAMN!!

Well, it was the place away from the girlfriend and when family visits, it is my hideaway from them. 

I bought the house three years ago and the only thing I have refinished is the basement.  I had to remove the drug lab and hydroponics setup.  Also had to soak the bloodstain out of the concrete from the suicide that I was not told about when I bought the place (also a murder in my bedroom). 

This doesn't sound like the Minneapolis/St. Paul I know--it's more like a CSI  stage set.  Maybe the drug lab was actually where they made up the lutefisk, and the blood stain was left over from someone who ate it and didn't have the genetic makeup to survive .  That murder in the bedroom is heavy. 

Do man-caves in the area come w/ built in Mr. Coffee setups?

That book sounds awesome.  I like Capps' quote: Baldness is just mind over matter.  It doesn't matter if the man doesn't mind.  Tru dat!

Awesome mission statement.  I love the legislature stating a bald man "being as radiantly happy as a fat man, was a blessing to the community."

I live in a strange neighborhood.  Triple homicide at the other end of the block.  I should have perhaps researched more before I bought the house, but it was at the time $50k below market for the area.  Now I know why.    The libraries have been more than helpful in acquiring old news articles to piece the information together.  It was much harder to get information on the suicide.  The cause of death on one of the certificates is "injury ulnar nerve."  They only handled marijuana and cocaine, so no worries with meth.

I have two different coffee makers.  One for espresso.  But I do not roast my own and nothing is built-in.  Thinking of going through the expense to make it a wet bar with potentially a range top.  Sort of a mini kitchenette.  Then if the parents ever move in, I the perfect place for me to live below ground.

Thanks Tyler!  Just picked up a copy of it for $7 so I can read the missing pages.
