Island House

Too bad this guy has no water front views. Developers in China have turned his home into an island to force him to sell to them. They reached an impass on price, so the developer dug the 30 foot pit. More here.

    Plus those bistards damaged his mailbox and the police aren’t responding to his complaints about noise anymore.

    Can you imagine it what it cost them to move all that dirt?

    The man cannot still live there!

    One of these days the Chinese will regret tearing down the historic places in the name of progress.. Beijing is begining to look way too much like LA or NY .

    Wow…I guess that is one way to force someone out. How does he get his food? I can’t imagine the costs involved with moving that dirt!

    LOL, looks like he’s got no choice now.

    I work for Wallhogs and we just began making Wallhogs for some realtors to use for their advertising and marketing. Is this something that would work in your industry? You’ve got my email now, let me know if this is something that you’d be interested in hearing more about. I can show you some examples and explain anything that needs explaining.

    Thanks,
    Scott at Wallhogs

    Wow, I can’t even imagine…even with the photo…how strange! Surely those in government can’t approve such a thing. Is there more to this story and who if anyone is living there?

    Dmitry told me the developer tore down the house. I do not know anything more about it, but I will see what I can find out.

    Well, that’s one way to negotiate.

    Maureen - this is hilarious! Where do you find this stuff?

    What a nightmare! What the heck is a Wallhog?

    In this case a Wallhog is someone who is spamming my blog.
