team linda simmons: Life Hacks - 11/13/13 06:15 AM
"Life Hacks", or "Life Hacking" is a cool sorta new (to me anyway) term for the short-cuts/tips we've all been doing for years. According to Wikipedia, it started in this form in the 1980's with Computer geeks doing shortcuts in their work. This spread to everyday life and in 2004 first used the term and it's spread.
As you go thru them, you'll see many that you've already done, but a buncha "duhhhh, that's TOO simple and I shoulda thought of it!!" items. I'm sure many have been in the long running "Heloise Hints" column in your newspaper.
Here are two … (34 comments)

team linda simmons: May Market Report for The Wiregrass - 06/29/13 08:16 AM
Wiregrass area residential sales up 39% in May - Year To Date sales up 10%
May residential sales in the Wiregrass area increased 39.4 percent from this same period last year. Sales also went up by 29.6 percent (21 units) from last month. That makes it up 9.9 percent for this year versus last year over the same period.
Wiregrass area residential sales up 39% from May 2012.
Housing inventory still remains high - up 1.9% from May 2012. To me, this figure may be skewed by the fact that Builders have been more active over the last year.

On May 17th, my Christain Rock Band "J.O.E. (Jesus Owns Everything) played at Harvest Church in Dothan, AL There were 15 bands vying to be the opening act for Colton Dixon (former American Idol star). Altho we didn't win (they were looking for a younger type band to match the style of the headliner - not MY opinion, but stated in Rules), we did get to meet and hear several other area bands that we haven't heard yet. The bands came from several places not too close by, as well as local bands from Dothan and Enterprise. From Panama City, Florida … (3 comments)
