Reblogging. A Suggestion to AR - 11:59 PM

This is my shortest blog (my personal record).
With the new rules about reblogging - requirement to add a 25-word introduction in order to get points, on the dashboard we now most often would not see where the original blog and where is a reblog.
I think it would be best if AR could somehow mark the reblogs right there on the dashboard. Some icon, or a word "reblog" would be fine.
What say you?

The Connecticut Wine Trail: Stops Six & Seven - 08:04 PM
The Connecticut Wine Trail: Stops Six & Seven
Back on the Connecticut Wine Trail after a short hiatus, the last weekend of August found us visiting two more wineries, Jones Winery of Shelton and Savino Vineyards of Woodbridge.

Jones Winery
Jones Winery is located on a 150-year-old farm in Connecticut’s White Hills, and has the distinction of having been named “Best Wine” in Connecticut Magazine’s September issue. This is quite an accomplishment, seeing as how they’ve only been in production for six years. To celebrate the award, the winery will be hosting a “Best of Connecticut” weekend on September 25-26, in conjunction with other … (7 comments)

A Lurid Tale of Cutting and Hacking - 08:29 AM
A Lurid Tale of Cutting and Hacking, sounds like the description of a low budget horror movie or just another day in the life of a Connecticut home inspector.
Power tools have sure made construction easier and more efficient...if used correctly. Because they can be almost effortless to use, simply switch them on and go at it, this leaves ample opportunity for the tool user to do some interpretive construction design.
Stop and think about it; Back in the days when all someone had was a handsaw or drill, the individual wasn't inspired to do much more than the task immediately … (8 comments)

Speeding becomes a high-ticket item as fines rise in Illinois Fines will zoom up as much as 60% for lead-footed drivers Sept. 15 Being a speed demon on Illinois roads soon could take a bigger bite out of your bank account.

What Will $1,000,000 Buy in Austin Texas Homes? - 09:09 PM
One question that always comes up when talking to people across the country is, "Why is everyone moving to Austin?" So I thought a great way to show you one of the reasons, that you can get more bang for your buck here than anywhere else, is to roll out a series much like the national network show that shows you just what you can get across the city for your money.  

This post will tackle the $1,000,000 range. Just like everywhere, a million dollars is alot of money; unlike elsewhere, you can get ALOT of house for that … (4 comments)

Speechless Sunday - What is That Up There on the Chimney? - 08:42 AM
I was out showing houses the other day in the country when we noticed something strange way up high on the chimney.
At first we could make out what it was.  Can you?

How about now?

Upon closer examination, we discovered that it was a rubber snake!  The owners had put it there to scare of birds that might want to roost at the top of the chimney.
