You Want Inspiration, Look No Further Than Your Local Homeowner! - 05/28/07 09:33 AM
If it wasn't for a lack of REM sleep and an inspired addiction to this very forum, I might never have had the opportunity to jot down all the thoughts going on in my head I wanted to share. Over a month ago I sat in this very chair, staring at this very screen, and I started to write about one of the more inspiring individuals I've ever met in my life. Then, it happened, computer freeze and POOF....it was gone. I hadn't the heart to pour out my heart about that guy again til now.
My very first year in this business, … (7 comments)

Do You Have Poo On Your Property? - 05/27/07 06:07 PM
So this is number 100, the century mark for a post-happy person like yours truly who is blogging his little heart away? Excellent! I look back and I've come a long way. I look forward and know that I have a long way to go. Evolution is such an intriguing reality. I wanted to make this one special, then I figured they all should be special....Right? So, I wanted to talk about POO. A little bit about POO....
POO is important but you really didn't really think I was referring to anything other than Pride Of Ownership in my acronym did ya? I was … (20 comments)

Are You A Leader Or A Follower? - 05/25/07 12:24 AM
I know, the initial reaction will be by most, that many think they are a leader. They are the Proverbial Chiefs and all the others are simply the so-called Indians. Ego gets in the way of the cold hard facts a lot of times. I'd include this as one of them.
Let me clue you in on a little something here as I stand on my Cyber-Pedestal. You aren't in control! Nor am I!! Don't get me wrong, there is a lot of things we are in control of, yet our Ego allows us to embellish what our role really is. I'm not a … (14 comments)

The Self Interview...What Do You Want To Know? - 05/24/07 12:12 AM
Talking to yourself isn't nearly as bad as people think. At least that is my own humble opinion. In fact, you may learn more about yourself than you would ever care to know. I found about the concept of interviewing yourself at a very early age, from a so-called Rock-God who wasn't and isn't looked at as the greatest role model on this somewhat green earth we call home. I liked the concept, loved the idea, and always thought it was enlightment in the making. After-all, the questions posed in a one on one self interview by yourself are limitless, and probe … (18 comments)

What Makes A House A Home - Allentown, Pennsylvania - 05/23/07 12:12 PM
This particular post was inspired in large part to Danny Smith's latest blog, which was inspired by Colleen Kulikowski original post of What Makes A House A Home? So, I guess this is a pretty inspired post indeed. I was thinking about this very thing on my way to work this morning. Quite frankly, it got me feeling very nostalgic.
As youngster growing up in the small town of Clarion, Pa.....my recollections of my youth are abundant. But one of my fondest memories is stepping foot in my Grandmother's home. This was back in the day when I still had my 'Sweet … (15 comments)

What Type of Mortgage Do You Have? - 05/18/07 12:43 PM
I read an interesting article in The Pennsylvania Mortgage Press in regards to homeowners and their knowledge, or lack thereof, of what type of mortgage they actually have. Apparently, Bankrate Inc. released a poll over at Bankrate.com which found more than three in 10 homeowners (around 34%) don't know what type of mortgage they own. This didn't totally shock me because I talk to people every day and their knowledge of mortgages (especially theirs) tends to run as thin as Telly Savalas's hairline. >>>>> 28% of those surveyed worry about how they will afford their payments. The national poll strikes a … (10 comments)

Enough of the 60 Minutes Hype, Let's Do Our Job! - 05/14/07 09:46 PM
I'm not a Realtor. I'm not a Real Estate Agent. I'm not apart of NAR. I don't represent any of the entities involved in the hoopla we recognize as news, at least that 60 minutes piece brought upon us or us upon them. In fact, I'm quite tired of the fertilizer spread across the landscape of the industry I work in.
The one thing that still gets me about the media...is we buy into it. Which means, they are doing their job! This very post buys into trying to defend an industry that quite frankly, isn't an easy way to make a living. If Leslie wants … (11 comments)

Localism, Pennsylvania, & A Cry For Help... - 05/12/07 11:27 PM
I don't mind humility. It is the one trait I feel most of us lack the most. I'm not talking about getting down on yourself, I'm speaking of reaching out and simply saying, "I live, help me learn." It is one of the things this forum allows us to do...if we let it, allow it, enforce it, & embrace it.
Before I go any further, let me say I've lived in the state of Pennsylvania for 28 out of the 30 years I've lived here on planet earth. I love the Steelers, have a soft spot for the Pittsburgh Pirates, and am not a … (10 comments)
