    Sometimes you try to come up with a clever thread title, but sometimes the facts speak for themselves:

    It doesn't say it in the article, but the guy didn't buy this house just to get back at his ex wife.

    He was in the market for a house. The real estate agent showed him this one. Later on, he found out the cheating guy lived next door. And he put the bronze finger statue up because he was mad at the guy, for "not being a man."


    As an aside, Markovitz is due to star in an HBO reality series.

    I doubt very much that this stunt is an "aside."
