Wordless Wednesday, Silent Saturday, and Speechless Sunday, After I finished showing properties with a Client a couple of days ago, I went to preview some properties for a different Client. Sitting at the entrance to the first neighborhood I was going to was a truck: That's not so unusual, but along with buying cars in any condition, and paying cash, they advertise this: At first I couldn't understand how you could buy a car from someone who didn't have title, and then it hit me: We're close to Mexico, where many stolen cars are taken to chop shops. I decided not to go any further into that neighborhood. I just wasn't comfortable taking my Clients into an area where there might be.... ♪♫♫♫♪ If you're looking for a great real estate agent in San Diego, well, I'm available 24/7, so feel free to contact me by phone or email.

Good one Jim.....I was wondering where you were taking us with your clever title. And then I saw - no title needed. End of story....lots of snakes out there. Watch out!

Sharon – A little too shady for me! When I showed the picture to my clients, they laughed and said “Thanks!” Zoey the Cool Cat likes anything that is new, or anything that gets put on the bed, new or old. She has acquired the bed in the office, so anything on the bed gets acquired, too.
Anna – Way too many snakes, and they seem to be multiplying like rabbits. Might have something to do with the economy.
Peg – You obviously haven’t been at ActiveRain long enough. Eventually you’ll learn to constantly look around for interesting things to blog about. J♪♫♫♪

Jim, I've seen signs advertising 'sell your car here - no title needed!' here in Kansas City. They are usually on those 'Cash Your Check Here' buildings that give loans to people at outrageous rates (kind of like credit card companies). But we aren't close to Mexico so I wonder how they work that?

Jim - It goes to show you, you can't trust everyone AND you need to read between the lines.
AND, what are you doing with my pet snakes? They are more afraid of you they will slither away, if they hear you.

Nevin – That I didn’t think of. Maybe like those cars on the Bait Car television reality show.
Maria – Maybe if they are going to destroy the car they don’t need a title. I’d just be concerned about stolen cars.
Ken – I knew those snakes belonged to someone around here! J♪♫♫♪

Jim. Oh my gosh. A blog I can actually comment on. I hate those reblogs because I can't comment to you. How have you been. Did I mention that I hate snakes? Never fails, when I am out gardening the snakes always find me. Doesn't matter how big or small, they slither their sneaky way right up next to me and then just sit there until I jump and scream and run all over the yard. I'm beginning to winder if my husband, Craig, doesn't have a hand in this Tom Foollery......

I love that you included a picture of two snakes. I'd say this guy is in a questionable line of work. Buying cars that may be stolen. Yikes!
