real estate broker: TODAY'S MARKET OUTLOOK! Northwest Chicago Suburbs, Schaumburg IL - 04/04/08 03:34 PM
EVERY REAL ESTATE MARKET IS LOCAL. ASK A SEASONED REALTOR, LIKE LYN SIMS, WHAT'S GOING ON LOCALLY! This time may be your "best opportunity" market in years!

real estate broker: Pet Rules - Humor for Dog & Cat Lovers from Lyn Sims RE/MAX Suburban - 02/19/08 08:27 AM
PET RULESTo be posted VERY LOW on the refrigerator door - nose height.Dear Dogs and Cats,The dishes with the paw prints are yours and contain your food. The other dishes are mine and contain my food.

The stairway was not designed by NASCAR and is not a racetrack. Beating me to the bottom is not the object. Tripping me doesn't help because I fall faster
