virginia realtor: Tonight You Get To Do What I Do Every Day - 10/31/09 08:41 AM
Today is Halloween!  Happy Halloween to you and the kiddies.
Time to bob for apples, dress up in scary costumes, get some candy, and wait for the Great Pumpkin!
Most of all, it's time to trek around the neighborhood Trick-or-Treating. 
It's the one time of year, that it's considered okay to knock on stranger's doors (and they'll actually open them) and peek inside their homes.  On all other days of this year, this would be considered trespassing, and depending upon which state you live in, you might be staring at the other end of a loaded shotgun when that door opened.

virginia realtor: Virginia Welcomes Migration of Maryland Millionaires - 04/09/08 03:56 PM
It's mid-April.  Are taxes on your mind?
