slidell louisiana homes for sale: E-Fax Anyone?
- 07/06/11 07:35 AM
I don't use my E-fax account near as much as I once did. After all it seems everyone has scanners these days. Scanners and email or much faster and cleaner than an old fax. We all know what happens after a document has been faxed more than once.
I recently considered dropping my account with E-fax and just switching my machine on when I was expecting a fax. I called E-fax to cancel, of course they didn't want me to cancel so they came up with an alternate proposal. Two free months and only $12.99 a month. I still said no … (2 comments)

slidell louisiana homes for sale: Adrenalin and The Economy | Slidell Real Estate
- 01/15/10 12:20 AM
The U. S. economy is on adrenalin. Locally the Slidell Real Estate market is getting some of the jolt this adrenalin gives when first injected. The economy is like a patient with a bad heart in critical care. When the heart rate is low or barely palpable one pushes adrenalin to boost the pressure and heart rate. The economy is on a government stimulus (adrenalin) at this time and barely has a blood pressure. Eventually the adrenalin doesn't work anymore and then we are in big trouble.
While some brokers and agents had great years last year and maybe better ones this year … (1 comments)

slidell louisiana homes for sale: Triathlon Tomorrow
- 01/08/10 07:21 AM
Going to run a Triathlon tomorrow. That's right much to my wife's chagrin that's what I am doing. Since it's to cold to do it outside I will be inside. I plan on lighting the fireplace and getting in my comfortable chair and watch football and enjoy an adult beverage. That's all there is to it.
FIRE
FOOTBALL
ADULT BEVERAGES
The Triathlon.

slidell louisiana homes for sale: I Snuck Out of The Office Early Today
- 12/21/09 11:33 AM
Yep I was a bad boy today. Left the office and phone behind today for a little R & R. The weather was nothing but sunshine and about 60 degrees. Drop dead gorgeous. I loaded up the boat picked up a buddy of mine and off we went.
We arrived around 1 p.m. and the bite was non stop. We caught a two man limit (50) by three o'clock. I am glad we got back early so we could clean them and eat some for dinner tonight. This is the only way my wife will let me go again.

slidell louisiana homes for sale: Wettest December Ever
- 12/17/09 11:02 AM
I think I know what it's like to live in Seattle now. Since my wife and I moved into our new house in October I think it has rained every three or four days. I mean really rained. By the time the rain ends tonight it should be the wettest month in recorded history in the New Orleans area ever. This goes back well over one hundred years.
By December 15 we had over 24 inches of rain. The record I believe was around 20 inches. We should shatter that.
With this in mind one should always try to buy … (4 comments)

slidell louisiana homes for sale: Full Time Realtor
- 11/02/09 07:06 AM
It's early August and traffic in my home is hot and heavy. I guess first time buyers seeking that $8,000 payday from Uncle Sam. We accepted an offer from an agent who's card stated in big bold letters at the top FULL TIME REALTOR. OK I'm impressed, really you got my attention.
What else got my attention was the Hawaiian shirt you were wearing. Looking kind of casual today are we? I am the first person to tell you neck ties suck. But neck tie withholding, one can still look more professional than this. I think he just left the country club … (6 comments)

slidell louisiana homes for sale: It's August
- 08/01/09 04:37 AM
I am enjoying a quiet weekend today. Seems most potential buyers are either shopping for school supplies or at the beach. I wish I were at the beach. More fun than cutting my grass.
Well at least training camps are open for the football teams. Like a kid, I am hopeful for the New Orleans Saints this year. We should know by the end of September how good they will be this year. Be safe and watch out for the school zones this coming week. School starts in St Tammany parish this coming Friday.

slidell louisiana homes for sale: Spring Is In The Air
- 03/13/09 07:33 AM
It's springtime for sure. The bottlebrush trees are in full bloom. My azaleas are bright and pink along with my Amarillo's and numerous other plants I forget or never knew the name.
It's been a long bitter cold winter this year. Especially for the Midwest and the Northeast. More so than usual. Remember Farmers Almanac predicted a colder than normal winter. I would say they got that one right. My favorite time of the year is still the Fall. Football and cooler weather after a long hot summer in the south.
Enjoy the warming weather everyone. Get out this weekend … (6 comments)

slidell louisiana homes for sale: Gas Tax Increase
- 01/02/09 10:48 AM
Just want to get my fellow active rainers opinions again. Just when gas prices start to retreat, someone in Congress has the audacity to propose raising gasoline taxes on all Americans. Can you believe this? These SOB's have no other ides than to take more and more of our hard earned dollars. In this current economy taking more money out of circulation isn't going to help any of us except the fat cats in Washington. God help us we need it.
