Barry Berkus, president of B3 Architects, sees another trend in the offing: multigenerational housing that includes multiple master-bedroom suites. We're not there yet, but overlay the aging boomers with the unemployment rate and the burgeoning habit of college graduates to bounce back home for a while, and what's needed is a space that can handle a family that looks nothing like Ozzie and Harriet...

...while, I slip a reference to my hobby into a conversation to see if anyone will bite, but people rarely do. It’s always refreshing when somebody does, though. My most reliable outlet for car talk until the beginning of this year was, amazingly enough, my House master, Jim McCarthy, who is as much of a gearhead as I am. The Christakises replaced the McCarthys this year, though, and though they’ve been great House masters, I’m going to miss the discussions over dinner of the latest modifications we’ve done...
