ideas: I believe the learning is in the thread...and the BLOG only gets it going! - 08/07/09 03:15 PM
After reading the FEATURED blogs the last couple of weeks or so...I have been disappointed, happy, eager, discouraged, and every other emotion that I can/cannot think of right now! That said, I truly believe that if you are going to AUTHOR A BLOG, especially a Contraversial one, then you should take the time to appreciate the commentors, and respond within the thread! THAT IS WHERE THE LEARNING & EDUCATION TRULY HAPPEN! Now, I am not saying to drink the "purple kool aid" like the Viking Fans are right now thinking Brett Favre is going to

ideas: Return of Bloggie! - Is it Hamsters or Squirrels running the servers at Active Rain? - 07/21/09 04:16 PM
A while ago, I did a blog on the new mascot for Active Rain, and I officially named him BLOGGIE! Well, Bloggie met with mixed emotions....so, I gave some thought to quitting the Mortgage Business and going to Mascot School myself, and...as of now, STILL have not decided on that career path yet! Read to the end of the blog for the ACTUAL new Mascot of Active Rain! (not approved by anyone at AR btw!)LOL Please note: CLICK on any pictures below if you have speakers and need a laugh! Here's Bloggie! Wanda Kubat-Nerdin thought he was cute! Cindy Jones thought squirrels, not

ideas: Signs, Signs, everywhere there's signs..blocked out by the scenery, and wasting my time...(sounds kinda like TESLA)..REDUX - 07/13/09 12:26 PM
I thought about my blog long and hard since last week...I originally published it with the statement listed below, but for some, that wasnt good enough...Sooo...contrary to my thinking, I decided to pull it, or take it down. This was VERY discouraging to me, because in the end all I was trying to do was help. I have/had more faith in the quality of the Realtors on Active Rain than in general because everyone on here seems to WANT to learn more!~ I am even LEAVING some the comments so everyone can read the intial ones left, as I have never been

ideas: If you advertise it, will they come? AN OPEN question to open houses! 12 great suggestions! - 05/28/09 12:43 PM
This is a VERY interesting topic, and came up with a REALTOR I spoke to JUST last night!! She is a 20 year Vet of the industry, and doesnt believe in OPEN HOUSES! Well, I DISAGREE! I have made alot of REALTOR contacts at them, customers that may not have bought that particular home, but still bought another one, and many great prospects and friends! We need to REVERSE this attitude! Also, and let me be loud and clear, saying something like, "well, that doesnt work in our area of the country" is ridiculous! Prosepcting is prospecting, no matter where you live! I

ideas: Do you have a Tiger in your Tank?? - 05/26/09 09:25 AM
They say a picture speaks a 1000 words, but seriously, how do your words paint the picture? Since being on Active Rain, and commenting on MANY people's blogs, it has become increasingly disturbing to me the trend I am noticing! That trend is the KNOW IT ALL vs. THE DEFENSIVE MECHANISM trend! It has always been my understanding that blogging served several purposes, but none of them were related to the ongoing BATTLE I am seeing both on AR and other networks! How did we reverse this trend you ask? Well, maybe we need to "tame" the Tiger

ideas: Garage Sales! A great place to get a deal on a loan too! - 04/28/09 08:23 PM
Today, I couldnt help myself! In my hometown, we are having an area wide garage sale! Arghhhh...traffic everywhere, and people looking for bargains..and not watching the road...blah blah blah!~ I ride my Mountain Bike to work everyday, as I only live 1 mile from the office...sooo...it was especially disturbing to me that a used couch and it's price were more important than my health...but, that is another blog for another day! Well, every day on my way to work, I go by the SAME 3 houses that are listed for sale and notice that they all have the SAME 3 things
