Every day there is something to learn here at ActiveRain.  With this series, I try to highlight posts that gave me that lightbulb moment. It could be something techie, something about Real Estate or other professions, about a place, or about a person. Or, it could be a post that made me sit up and take notice!

Good morning, Kathy... I do believe I'll give myself a pat on the back today... I'd already read and commented on 10 of the 11 posts you mentioned. Makes up a bit for my dismal performance vis-a-vis Carol Williams's list yesterday.

Nina Hollander, Broker I know how busy you are, so you deserve more than a pat on the back.

Hope you are having a restful Sunday/Holiday. Here is a question...in this crazy world we live in, if a father decides to change gender...do you have to give him a Mother's day AND Father's day present?

Jeffrey DiMuria 321.223.6253 Waves Realty I doubt it would be appropriate for me to say what I would say lest I be thrown off the site. I don't judge but I do think asking for two gifts is a bit greedy.
