IBG

My parents have lived in their Iowa home for more than 16 years. Throughout the course of their residence we’ve noticed that a disproportionate quantity of strangely negative things seem to happen in that house. Water leaks, appliances break, people fall down stairs, and on and on.

It’s become a bit of a joke in that we now blame the bad things on the fact that their home must be built on and Indian burial ground, or IBG for short.

The other day…

Me: Mom, I think you guys should consider moving out of that house.

Mom: Nah, what we should consider is having it blessed by a shaman, a holy man or a… what do you call that other one…?

Me: A real estate agent.
