For real?

I've been stuck at home today trying to shake a fever and aches and feeling bored this afternoon, I followed up on a news report I heard on the radio about a house on the Winnipeg market with a record asking price. Here's part of the description from the MLS website: "From the sweeping suspended staircase and sumptuous main flr Master to the stunning infinty pool-this home IMPRESSES! 13,200 sq ft raised bung w/2nd storey & walkout overlooking a magnificent back yard development & panoramic lake views. 5 Brs & 9baths. Elevator access to all flrs. You'll be wowed w/the amazing huge windows,beautiful wide plank oak flrs,custom millwork,limestone accents,Great rm 24 ft ceiling & THE ULTIMATE GOURMET KITCHEN. The dinrm has a remarkable wet bar w/onyx counter & onyx back lit wall panels..." And it goes on. Also, potential buyers are assured that the house has a "state of the art" security system with 24/7 360 degree video surveillance. If this is a "dream house" do our dreams make sense? And if we need to protect our property with 24/7 360 degree video surveillance is that really a dream come true?

Good question!
A dream?
That sounds more like a nightmare!
