“Breakfast hook” – More MLS hoots and hang-ups
Well friends, this is my last blooper post of the year, and I still have not run out of material. I don’t know whether to thank these hapless agents or to flog them.

Doubt resistant landscaping and other hilarious MLS oddities
Friends, the MLS was rife with strange spelling and phrasing this week. Our local newspaper ads also gave the MLS some great competition. Are we all just tired after a year in the trenches?

How resilient leaders survive in a destroyed economy
Frustration in business In a down economy, most businesses suffer. Some adapt and some fail.

“Call me SAP” – idiots among us (the MLS)
I propose that Realtors be asked to take a spelling test if they plan to write their own listing remarks. Kids in school have to pass spelling tests, so why shouldn’t we? However, I must admit that’s a tall order. When I think of how many agents actually pronounce “Realtor” as “Real-a-tor,” I shudder to think of the spelling outcome. ...
