Found this article just now at CBS News online, as is.  As Dave Barry says, I am not making this up.  I'm guessing CBS will correct it soon, so here's a screen grab...

Hahahaha, who knew that rates could be such pests?

What, you don't get a phone bill?

since the homeowner is a tax-preparer, they are of course "tax rates". 788 of 'em

or...

as MistressMeg would say: Gee-ross!
Lauri
Lol.....yes, and my home has carpenter rants, too! ;)

OK, the bracketed part of that "quote" was maybe a little slightly somewhat completely fabricated.
Teho
Waaaaay. I even know who did it.
Lauri
LMAO.

Willard
Buckchew.

Yeah.....those interest rates have really gone up...Leave them alone and they just keep multiplying....just like gas prices.

Teho
...well, they have now. That house is officially 100% rate-free.
Onward to the next challenge!
