Do you know if you have to buy one of their houses, or can you build your own?  I ask because I'm giving serious thought to having a home built by "The General" (General Steel Contractors).  Either that or buying Roses from 1-800-flowers... or maybe getting a nice juicy steak from Ruth's Chris and mentioning that Sean Hannity sent me (that should get me a prime table, with a name drop like that). 
 
Although The General usually recommends it's structures for businesses or churches (did I mention that I could get a free vase for those roses by clicking on the microphone icon on the 1-800-flowers website and telling them Laura Ingram sent me?  I wonder, should I have the vase sent with the flowers, or maybe have it sent back to me?  I'll have to ask.), I don't see any reason why they can't build a home for me.  Lots of Churches have kitchens (although it's usually Protestant churches that I've seen them in, Catholics have them in the Rectory.  I'm Catholic myself.) so maybe just running gas plumbing and electric lines would be enough.  Although maybe they only build the exterior.  I'll have to find out. 
 
But since they go up in 1/3rd the time, or so I've been led to believe, and I have the choice of brickface or stucco (I'm definietly a stucco guy myself.  Especially in Florida), I'm thinking the structure from "The General" might be the way to go.

Don't do a thing without the advice of Dr. Greg Cynamon.

After you have your house built by the General, are we invited to the house warming party? We can get Lobster Gram to cater!! If you host a slumber party, we can get Pajama Gram in the mix as well!! I will be sure to order you some proflowers and a Vermont Teddy Bear for you house warming present.

I'd urge anyone thinking of moving to Florida to reconsider, unless you are hot--or plan on opening a business that will employ me at a 7 figure salary with lots of time off.

but with your cortislim lifestyle will you really need a kitchen or are you planning for when andy reid stops by during the off-season to meet with you and the missus to discuss your happiness in your new steel home since he'll probably want one to hold his everexpanding food collection and i'm sure he'll have questions such as if those steel structures will stand up to hurricane force winds because if i remember correctly florida is suscpetible to them and i would hate to see you lose your home AND your amazing collection of videotapes that we wont discuss but you're right dropping shawn hanitee's name at Ruth's Chris stakehouse will get you a prime table for a prime rib just as dropping bill clintons name at my local cigar emporium usually gets me a better deal!
