1. My mortgage payment slip says I
am paying on one house. Can't think of any others that I already paid for. And I didn't acquire any through marriage or inheritance. No condos, either. Darn!!

6. I just checked!
Of course, all I had to do was run out into the yard, turn around, and look.

9. Let Jeeves do it the next time he takes the Bentley out for an oil change.
Honey, I can't be bothered to go to the bank myself, I have a hair appointment!

11. Gee, I was just having this conversation on the phone...
Honey, honey, I've got something to tell you... We've got another house.

No, I didn't just buy it, the staff -- ah, James -- just told me about it.

What's that? We're up to eight now? I didn't think it was that many, but you know how I am with numbers and details and things...

Well, I guess it's in Nebraska.

OW, ow, honey, that was right in my ear! Don't panic -- no, I don't know why we have a house in Nebraska, either. Weren't you on one of those fad diets, all corn or soybeans or something?

No, I'm not making fun of your diets, honey. I-- I-- ah--

No, no, sweetums, you aren't fat, you're as beautiful as the day I married you --

Oh, wait a minute -- what's that James? Oh, James tells me its in Nevada. I guess that makes more sense.

Hm, you say you think it was that time a year ago when our jet had engine trouble and we had to stop in Las Vegas? I suppose that could be it.

What's that, James? Oh, James says Lake Tahoe. Right, the Nevada side would make sense, so we could look out at the pretty California side, without the casinos.

You think we got it two years ago when we were slumming at Harrah's? We did get pretty frosted one afternoon, Mai Tai's by the pool and all.

Yeah, yeah, they did have a real estate office by the gift shop...

12. I actually own about 50 homes...
I had to take the time today to count...
First is my house, then there are the green houses from my Monopoly game, then there are the red houses from the Monopoly game (I counted those as only one house each)...then there is the shoebox where I keep my lizard (that's a nice house!), then there is the little dog cage where my little puppy goes when we are gone so he doesn't destroy everything in the house...

It's really tough to remember how many houses that I have, me and John McCain, we should get together and count our houses together sometime...
