55+ Humor on Life--Have Cancer / Will Laugh - 10/29/08 11:21 AM
We received a phone call yesterday, from a dear friend, who mentioned "in passing" that the Cancer Doctors have discovered it has shown up in her leg.  What is her statement, " Well shucks, after 29 years & counting as a survivor I guess that The Lord has decided to send me a notice.  It will not get me down! I'm, with His help, going to beat this too."
 She is my Hero!
 We met her 27 years ago, as the Foster Mother to a 4yr old boy who would soon become our adopted son.  Through the following years we learned about her double … (8 comments)

Unable to Cut & Paste--Age related?

55+ Humor on Life--Points, Associates--What's Up Here? - 10/24/08 07:46 PM
Hi & Help;  
 Just spent loads of fun time reading others' Blogs / & comments on,  needing copyscape,  talking about Points, Staging, & so many other great subjects. We are only 10 days into AR & now  can see that other than reading or type-talking to you at AR, I really  have two questions. As I ask these, please be nice but also very clear if you answer.
 a. Points--what are points? I can see that some of you have loads of them, but really what is the rationale.  It must be my education-teaching background, but I don't get the point of points.  Since I … (4 comments)

55+ Humor on Life--You Tube / Me Tube / Did it - 10/23/08 09:29 PM
Hi,
 Finally, I was able to upload another video to You Tube; This was not a treasured moment; to those of you out there who are pure genius in this & regardless that I have my ePro designation I was saddened by my inability in this experience.
1st--I tried each & every combination I knew on how to up load--Picasa who immediatly accepted all my videos etc.  told me in a very crabby way that..."99% upload could not complete..."
2nd--Windows skydrive / writer indicated, rudely I might add, that .."files cannot be located..." enclosed in a long window with a large RED  X.

Hi out  there,

Hi again,
So happy to see so many others out there with the humor gene; kindred souls all. Thought some might like to learn a trick to keep others in line--Not clients; on our web site we have a page called "the Great Ones" where we have listed those Businesses & indviduals with whom we have had successful experiences. These are places and persons that we recommend. However, as is sometimes discovered, even those  that you try to share with the world can get flippant, so-o-o-, my / our standard answer to such a soul is: "Be careful, you are but one click … (6 comments)

Hello to all out there in blog land,
 We received a mailing from a Builder friend the other day & felt motivated to share it with others in the REALTOR(R) field.  I am paraphrasing his mailing ( otherwise known as 'not quoting directly)

     "Where is my Sunday paper? I want my Sunday paper", angrily stated the woman on the phone.   "Um-m-m Madam, … (16 comments)
