"I still think John and Mary could be friends. I know they don't agree on politics, but in every other way they seem like a good match. I tried to bring them together, but they were too stubborn." "I tried my best to sell the house. Anderson was asking $400,000, and Gallagher was offering $350,000. I talked to both of them, and I was able to get Gallagher to up her offer to $375,000 and Anderson to agree to accept $390,000. But, even though they were only $15,000 apart, they could not be brought together on a price."
