Humorous Commenting is ..my contribution like it or not....

            4,000 comments..and just getting started..thanks for putting up with my shenanigans!!



Another active rain milestone achieved, 4,000 comments. I am a veracious reader these days and I hope my thoughts are interesting if not humorous on your many fine posts. There are times I disagree with the blogs authors, I hope the writer takes my responses in good spirit, or if I'm lucky gets my opinion. 

No one sets out to tell the king he is naked, and I for one have gone back and edited a post after a Realtor I respect commented on something I said that could be seen as questionable. If I ever made a comment that made you feel awkward..think of how the Bush's felt in this moment.

Last and not least Salesmen and the social creatures that most Realtors are, we have a tendency to be a little off color with our humor. This goes for the posts I have written and the comments I have made on others blogs. In the spirit of the Holidays.. I ask your forgiveness, but offer no further apologies. I will continue to be myself and hope you will accept me as a brother (who you only see at Christmas).

Enjoy some humor today it is one of the few things that separates us from the animals. Everything that lives needs to breath, sleep ,eat, drink and have shelter, but only man needs to laugh. And Laugh we should!!

Yes we do need laughter.  Sometimes much more than other times.  And don't worry about offending someone, unfortunately, no matter what you do somedays, it doesn't sit right with someone, but hey, they'll get over it :) 

Thanks for the laughs.

Normal is soooo boring! Bring on the humor! If others don't like it or don't understand it then...their loss! If we wre normal, then we wouldn't be in this business, right?

I try not to be controversial or engage in off-color humor because I don't want prospective Clients to see it. I keep it to myself in the privacy of my home. When I leave home, even via the Internet, I try to be Pleasant, Polite, Personable, Positive, and Professional at all times. It works for me.

You inspire me to waist more time racking up points on AR. The race is on... 56 down, Three Thousand, Nine-Hundred and Forty-Four to go! (I wrote it out to create more of a numerical impact). I'm learning from the best...
