Here is the code. Please fix it and I will edit it. Sorry I haven’t done any code in about 10 years, so I am clueless.

Try this, but without the <pre> tags.  Nice and simple.

No worries Troop!  It’s likely a bug in the forum software that isn’t filtering some html tags correctly.

Yes, it’s for sale… "The House of Crosses in Chicago, Illinois".  (no idea what the list price is though….)     What do you want to bet that there are more than a few St. Joseph statues buried in this yard !

Wow…reminds me of this one I found a while back in LA County http://www.southoctracker.com/2007/06/house-of-weird.html
I just checked the Redfin listing again, and this place actually sold - for not too much less than the asking price.

I loved the selling point in graphrix’s listing - "living space with exterior access".
