With that in mind, the high speed train will probably consist of 2 lines (managed by 2 companies), one from San Francisco to San Jose using the Japanese train, the other line from a different station in San Jose to LA using the French train. The 2 stations will be connected by Light Rail, and the schedules will be inversely synchronized.

Caltrain is a local commute vehicle and bullet trains to LA do nothing to improve local commutes. And bullet trains need to be UNDERGROUND in urban areas. This plan has this bullet train going right through downtown Burlingame. I’m sick of all these public transportation white elephants.

Actually shacks like this is a common subject for jokes about american RE market in russian media. “Look where americans spend their millions…”

If he zoomed out a bit, you’d see that it’s also in close proximity to the Caltrain tracks. It’s like the Axis of Evil.

What’s really funny is the fact that the home is in the bottom left corner of the overhead screen shot. As burbed aptly described, the Realtwhore must have seen it as a positive and intentionally sought to include it in the description.

Think about it. You can sit on your porch inhaling fumes, absorbing electromagnetic fields watching the planes go by. Not only that, but you can experience this glorious setting with people of all ages! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh the bay area. How special!

Remember: The bay area is not Texas (or Uranus!).

“This is true, but people usually go to that park on the Old Bayshore Highway where all the hotels are to do that.”

So, start an airport parking business. You can probably fit 4 cars on that lawn and driveway. At $10/day, that’s about $1200 per month for full occupancy. Give up your garage and build a mini-parking deck for even more space!

Sometimes I wish Improv Everywhere could set up in mission during an open house.

I’m going to inquire about buying this house.

This is true, but people usually go to that park on the Old Bayshore Highway where all the hotels are to do that.

And unfortunately it appears a lot of people are willing to do that.

Not to mention the entrepreneurial possibilities: a bed-and-breakfast near the airport, a meeting (cough) conference room for those wishing to meet without driving too far out of the airport, and of course your own barbecue stand to rival the Broadway Benihana.

“double-you eee-tee, pee-eee-tee-ess, double-you eee-tee, pee-eee-tee-ess…”

You’ve now been priced out forever.

burbed, how can you call this house bargain basement when it doesn’t even have a basement?

DreamT, LOL. I’d kind of like a Perpetual Tire Fire nearby, myself.
