Friday Funnies - It's Almost Football Season! - 08/28/09 08:03 PM

My good friend Toula Rosebrock, a long suffering Jets Fan, and Realtor extraordinaire from Ocean County, New Jersey just posted a great Funny Friday blog featuring Brett Farve in one of those "Priceless Master Card" commercials.
Well, that got me thinking about a funny Saturday Night Live skit featuring Peyton Manning in a ficticious United Way commercial.
There's a lot of wrong here, but it's really pretty funny considering how much Mr. Manning has given back to the community.
So, with football season rapidly approaching us, enjoy this Friday Funny....

Once again, as they have done for the past two years, the Cary Area Emergency Medical Services will be providing free flu vaccinations to the public!
On October 17, 2009 starting at 8:00 am and running until the vaccine runs out, folks ages 14 and up can receive the vaccine.
Come early as the vaccine ran out by 11AM the last two years. However, over 650 people were able to take advantage of this free clinic in 2008.
The clinic will be held at the Cary Area EMS, located at 107 Medcon Court, Cary, NC.

OK, so I'm not saving lives or fighting for my country's freedom.
No, I'm not growing the food that everyone relies on to survive, or molding the youth of today to become tomorrow's leaders.
But, as a Real Estate agent, I do serve a very valuable purpose. Simply put, I help people fulfill their dreams of home ownership.
And that, in its most basic terms, is why I LOVE what I do. The look on my clients faces when I hand them the keys at the closing table, or when I pull up to a home and hear their ooohs … (96 comments)
