[13:19] <wolf|work> O_o There's a "spin" on your control pad?

[13:51] <brousch> There is an interesting job in Durango, CO, so I looked at the cost of living difference. This was unexpected http://www.bestplaces.net/cost-of-living/grand-rapids-mi/durango-co/50000
[13:51] <brousch> Durango is 43% more expensive than Grand Rapids.
[13:52] <brousch> Housing is 207% more expensive in Durango.
[13:57] <cmaloney> That doesn't surprise me
[13:57] <cmaloney> MI is a bargain
[13:57] <cmaloney> I think the only places that have cheaper housing are West Virginia
[13:59] <wolf|work> brousch: really surprised that you were surprised
[13:59] <brousch> But 200%?
[14:02] <wolf|work> over Grand Rapids?
[14:03] <wolf|work> You can probably find places in Michigan were houses are 200% over Grand Rapids :-p
[15:31] <greg-g> will durango still have a high cost of living after that toxic spill?
[15:33] <cscheib> I wouldn't say Michigan as a whole is really all that cheap, like many states, we have cheap areas, and particularly expensive areas... just not silicon valley expensive
[17:46] <jcastro> MI Rocks
[17:47] <jcastro> if you go to like, mountain view or any of the valley places
[17:47] <jcastro> it's like, millions and millions of dollars
[17:47] <jcastro> for a tiny ranch
[17:48] <jcastro> If I had to live in the valley there's no way I could afford a house there
[17:49] <greg-g> see also: Greg moving to Petaluma, but still being priced out
[17:50] <jcastro> ooh, kyle rankin lives there
[17:50] <jcastro> btw, I tried to get a sprint close to there but the prices were just too much
[17:50] <jcastro> so we could have had martinis again
[17:51] <rick_h_> jcastro: you should drive down to chicago with us. Can ride down with jrwren and I :)
[17:51] <jcastro> rick_h_: I just came from there
[17:52] <rick_h_> jcastro: ah cool
[17:56] <jcastro> rick_h_: is your sprint next week?
[17:56] <rick_h_> jcastro: 31st
[20:40] <cmaloney> Things I hate: forgetting the percent for date +%F
