Not shown here, because we don’t yet have “Magnify. Rotate. Magnify. Print” technology: the contents of the drawer, which are being sold by the buyer of the bedroom set.

That Rumpus Room Looks Dangerous

funny real estate - That Rumpus Room Looks Dangerous

I like this house, not in an “actually I think this is awesome” way, but in a “oh, I’d live there, that would be good, sure” way, and I don’t think I’m saying that just because I’ve been househunting for two years and I’m a wee bit sick of going to open houses with the booties and the hovering real-estate-agents and the awkwardness when you realize that the house you’re touring is probably cursed and you have to flee but you don’t want to offend anyone. So yeah, this house looks fine.

One problem: it’s in Alaska. Nothing against Alaska — some of my best friends etc — well, that isn’t actually true, but some people who I like a lot etc — sorry, I quit drinking tea a few days ago and I’m so very foggy-headed — anyway — problems with Alaska. Right. There are two.

1. It would be a hell of a commute for The Breadwinner, who works in Seattle, and

2. Downhill sledding is such an important part of Alaskan life that all houses come with indoor sled runs (seen above) where people practice year ’round, even in their brief, mosquito-riddled summers, and I just don’t know if I’m up for that.

Act Now On This Hot Cabin Deal-

Feb. 16, 2010

Log Cabin Before

Whoops, too late.

Log Cabin After

At least this way it’s easier to stack. And stackablity is the most important quality in a home.

My God. Do you know how many Zoobas died to furnish this house? You savages. Savages! They’re endangered; please let them live. Think of it: when was the last time you saw a pair in the wild?

Loveliest comment, by Seungmina: Be nice to the poor house, it has hopes and dreams. Dreams of one day being a bowling alley, or a chartered bus seat.

Log Flume…Get It? "Log" Flume?

Funny-Real Estate-Photo-LogFlume

Another for the “Actually I think this is awesome” file. Not that I’d want to live there, because I take fully-functioning indoor plumbing very, very seriously. But look at this! It’s like something out of a Richard Scarry book! The water goes up the pump and then down the gutter into the toilet tank… at that point I’m not certain exactly what happens. If they have a septic system, wouldn’t they have bothered putting in a real line to the toilet? And if they don’t have a septic system, where does.. it all… go?

Loveliest comment, by Lisa W, referring to the propane-bearing chair Magister Ludi found: If you look closely, you’ll see that is chair’s Alaskan cousin, made of sturdy timber found on the land. Alaskan Chair is used to working hard, braving the weather, and generating interest wherever he goes.
