Homebuyer Tip: Knock on Wood — literally

The first thing you need to know when checking wood in your new home or home-to-be is that appearances can be deceiving. How a wooden beam looks like, for example, has no bearing on its condition.

After more than a year in hiatus, Cribs & Rides is finally getting the attention it deserves—from me. You see, I've been neglecting most of my blogs this past year. Yes, sad but true. But I've had very good reasons, among which is my busy blogging schedule with blog network b5media (MMOtaku and Re:Retro) and my almost-recent relocation to the central Philippines to rejoin my wife, Joyce, and daughter Cesky.

Well, now I have a wee bit more time to get things going again. First off, as you may have noticed already, I've changed the theme of Cribs & Rides, giving it a more, if you will, professional feel. Many thanks and kudos to Michael Jubel up at ThemeLib.com for coming out with a superb template for blogger.



Beautiful, eh? Though, for the life of me, I haven't figured out how to change the code for the banner advertisement.

Anyway, we've got a great last quarter ahead of us. With the "ber" months in mid-swing, I'm sure we'll see a lot of good deals and purchases soon. So sit back and relax in your Crib, and enjoy the Ride.
