Once you find a house u live and your offer is accepted you’ll usually have a home inspections depending on the terms of the contract. The home inspection is basically a tutorial on how to care for your home while also making sure it’s in proper condition and no major issues. As far as advice goes I’m a realtor and it can be very frustrating for buyers in this market. But be patient and it will all work out in the end. When you find the house you love and want, not to sound corny, but you’ll feel it. It will feel like home. Kind of like staying the night at a friends compared to your home now. Look for comfort.

Haha I don't have any American friends that say that.
Him and his wife have cooked for me and also we've gotten takeout from the places he talked about. Significantly better. Really it came down to the sauces and flavors. Way more balanced flavor and also less oily. I came to realize most Indian restaurants around here are a much more fast food version of Indian food.

Passage to India is great. Wish more like that were in MetroWest. Sudbury has a good similar one called Soul of India, but Passage is better

Watch out for the foundation issue plaguing central MA homes. Definitely don't do anything stupid like waive inspection on homes that may be affected.

What year though? I was working a corporate event in '97 and the photographer had a digital camera that he had rented -- he was super nervous because it was a $10,000 camera. My partner and I were early adopters and bought a Nikon Coolpix in '99 for $1,000(!), and it shot only stills. We got a digital camcorder in 2000, but I think they were pretty new. Digital took off quickly at that point, but as the OP mentioned this video had been made in '94, I'm assuming it was shot on an analog tape-based camcorder and edited with a specific video controller.

This is SO important! I live in a condo “complex” which is only 5 units and we all share a yard. One unit has rats burrowing under the house and they hired a pest control company that put out poison boxes. Within 3 weeks we had a “drunk” mother raccoon (with babies) that we had to call animal control for and a dead skunk along with 3 dead rats that WE had to dispose of because the neighbor who put out the poison just left them there for our dog to pick up. We got into an argument with the neighbors and they asked the pest control guy to talk to us. He told us that all of the poisons used are “perfectly safe” and there is “no risk of secondary poisoning.” He went as far as to point out that all of the product names were on the poison box so that we could look them up. Well, all 4 poisons are SGARs and it took about 5 minutes to discover that the manufacturers label for all 4 have explicit warnings of secondary poisoning.
Not only will the proposed bill help to limit the use of SGARs, but it will also force homeowners to sign an acknowledgment that secondary poisoning is a serious risk so that pest control companies like the one my neighbor used can’t tell people they’re perfectly safe.
We live on a pond and a pair of bald eagles come here every winter as well as ospreys and tons of hawks that all hunt in our backyard. The fact that these companies are able to lie to consumers about the risks is criminal!

What if your Indian friend has garbage taste in Indian food? Sort of the equivalent to your American friend telling you that the 99 is the best American restaurant.

At the risk of wooshing myself, it's a line from the Simpsons.

Start asking friends and coworkers for references: plumbers, electricians, general handymen, etc. A lot harder to find these people when an emergency comes up and you need them immediately.

They did, sorta, with digital still cameras. I remember shooting 30-second videos on my digital camera because that was the longest it could shoot for.

It was a general statement. It includes everyone, we all need to do better.
