"You're mocking me, aren't you?" - 02/19/12 07:04 AM
"You're mocking me, aren't you?" Truly, that was one of my favorite scenes in Toy Story. Woody is most definitely mocking Buzz, making fun of his delusions about being a space ranger and not a toy. I have used that line on my husband from time to time, though I lack the great delivery of Tim Allen... Mocking can be funny, or it can be hurtful...depending on the circumstances and the people involved. When my husband mocks me, it is usually in response to something I said or did that was sorta dumb, and I am laughing at myself along … (46 comments)
Raising The Bar....Y-A-W-N - 02/10/12 10:15 AM

Listings that may or may not sell cost everyone money - whether it be gas money driving there, money for advertising, time and effort on the part of the listing … (4 comments)
Fair Housing, The Law, Opinions, and Common Sense - 02/07/12 04:04 PM
I was involved in a discussion regarding Fair Housing Law compliance and advertisements. The author amended her stand somewhat, but originally she stated that using comments such as "Walking distance to...." in advertising our listings is a violation of the Fair Housing Act and she found it distressing that agents were using this description time and time again. But. It is NOT a violation of the federal Fair Housing Act. It may be a violation of a local ordinance or of an MLS rule - which to me is ridiculous - why do we need to make the law even more restrictive … (2 comments)
