What a difference a word makes

It’s Monday following Hurricane Irene and I’m reading facebook posts, twitter tweets, blog posts and news stories and it hits me. The common theme today seems to be what a “mild” or “lame” or “insignificant” hurricane!  One of my friends even called it a “Snoozer” when I asked how she managed.  Unless of course you… [Read more…]

I think this is a debate worthy of constant commentary.  I’m not going to write a thing.  Here is your opportunity to make your case.  I am looking forward to hearing the case for your preference from the perspective of casual user, business user, real estate professional user, real estate consumer user.   Have at… [Read more…]

So I’m driving through Virginia, which by the way, is one of the most beautiful places on earth.  The Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia are simply spectacular.  I understand they are equally beautiful in Pennsylvania, Maryland, South and North Carolina and Georgia as well, but I happened to be driving through Virginia.  Here’s a photo… [Read more…]

Failing, that’s what’s new.  Real, honest to goodness failing! Just read a post by Seth Godin called How to Fail and it struck me that we could really use this advice in the real estate business right about now. Why, you might ask, would we want to fail in the real estate business NOW? What better… [Read more…]

This post in actually a comment on a post from Mike McClure’s blog that can be read here.  I strongly recommend that you read the original post first as I didn’t structure this post as a stand alone and reference comments about and within the original.

ActiveRain is insignificant

I went to ActiveRain today.  I can honestly say I have never been there before.  I hear the collective gasp.  I went because Real Trends (they have a new website, check it out) links to a few posts there from its newsletter so I thought I should at least click. Originally I thought about pontificating about… [Read more…]

Format Change

I changed the format of this blog in an effort to force myself to write more often. As you can see, it appears that I only have something to write about every year or so. Actually, I do have more to say than that. Perhaps not a lot, but some. So I’ve committed to writing… [Read more…]

Had an interesting conversation Tuesday that validated something I have been talking about for 5 years now.  It was interesting enough to me to resuscitate this blog I started a year ago and never really did anything with.  BTW, the old posts are still here if you care to read them.  I only did a few… [Read more…]

Real Estate and the paperweight

July 1, 2009

So I got a gift recently from a friend and it got me thinking about a few things. First it’s important to know what the gift was.  A paperweight.  Albeit a very attractive one. Here’s why it got me thinking.  A paperweight to hold down the papers on my desk from blowing when I have the… [Read more…]
