Have any of you, dear readers, lost precious time watching this channel? What a load of crap. It seems to be devoted to encouraging homeowners to invest in improvements to their house just when they're putting it up for sale on the bet that the change will more than pay for itself.
Good luck with that. HGTV also relies on idiot home buyers, who, upon entering a home, are more concerned about the wall color than whether the roof leaks. And often young ones, who seem to be programmed to demand the current design fad: exposed hardwood floors, stainless steel appliances, an "open concept," and two sinks in their bathroom.
I'm not what you would call an experienced homebuyer, having lived in my first home for 30 years, but I went after it properly - location, good "bones" and that sort of thing. The wall colors were pretty far down my list since slapping on a coat of paint is not that hard.
We curmudgeons, as you well know, don't kowtow to fads...nor idiot home buyers.
