Yeah, I hope so too....we've been doing a lousy job of it up to this point.

....Your avatar is a good start.

More humor to temper this thread:

Goofer, your "cowboy+sheep" avatar reminds me of a good lawyer joke.....

Jury selection was underway for a case regarding a farmer who was being prosecuted for having sex with his sheep. The farmer was very worried about the prognosis but a friend referred him to highly successful attorney who was very well known for being able to select the "right jurors".

Later that day, the trial began.

The prosecution asked their witness, "Sir, you said you walked into the barn and saw the act in progress?" The witness responded, "Yes sir, he was standing there with his pants down behind the sheep and the rest you can imagine." It didn't look good for the farmer.

After a few more questions, the prosecution finished presenting their case and it was time for the defense's presentation.

Now the farmer's lawyer called his only defense witness...the farmer. "Sir, can you tell your side of the story?" The farmer replied, "I was just standing in the barn, pulled down my pants and was taking a leak when all of a sudden one of my sheep just backed right up in to me."

One of the jurors elbowed the juror next to him and whispered, "Pssss...a good sheep will do that!";-)

Shelly.....Next Stop (for you)......SNL !!!!

What a PERFECT link! Great way to start off my day!

At least with the PROs and CONs of this topic, your humor keeps me entertained and wanting more. Some people take personal offense by your observations and retaliate accordingly. No secret that I have a vested interest (and love) for the area. So yea, sometimes it's hard to swallow your opinions. But today's sales numbers are vendicating your position (to a degree)...period. The bottom of this market is still unknown.

There seems to be a little difference today: some strength in the genereal stock market. This will hopefully firm up the real estate market in general...just a hope;-) .

Maybe Goofer is right... that maybe now, those with any monetary guts, might be considering stepping up to the plate to buy. The height of the negativity (not just you;-) ) is close to its all-time high. That's when it's time to zag. But "good deals" must still be agressively negotiated even at today's prices. Banks and flippers are going to get hurt...one person's pain is another person's gain, as typically is the case with ANY marketable commodity.

More true words have not been spoken.

Both my sisters and I have already been pushed out of south walton{not South Walton County (for SJ)} along with many of my friends.

How exactly were you, your sisters and many of your friends "pushed out"?

The Walton Funn, October 27, 2006

Florida e-mail Scandal

The Walton Funn has obtained copies of implicit e-mails between a developer and the State of Florida.

ThirtyGay: hey

FlaUsa: hey, wassup?

ThirtyGay: I?m in pensecola, chekin things out

FlaUsa: cool

ThirtyGay: how long is your coastline?

FlaUsa: I don?t know, <giggles>

ThirtyGay: well take out a ruler and measure it for me

FlaUsa: about 1,197 miles

ThirtyGay: nice. just thinking about our time together in miami

FlaUsa: yea, we sure did it good there huh

ThirtyGay: we sure caused a lot of high rises to pop up, hehe

<The following portion of the transcript has been omitted due to the graphic references to wetland filling.>

Authorities have confirmed that ThirtyGay is the Yahoo IM screen name of SoWal?s very own 30-gAy. And that he has been responsible for the much discussed over development of Florida.

?We?ve been complaining for years about the ?developers? and now it?s good to finally know who is behind the molestation of Florida. It?s the gays; naturally. They have no ethics anyways and seem to enjoy destroying the country, I mean they?re even going after marriage now.

The state Attorney General says he will continue to probe as to whether any laws were broken, ?It is clear than 30-gAy has crossed an ethical line here by violating virgin coastal areas, however it may be harder to pin any actual legal charges on him.?

Janet Lupanare, a spokesperson for Grandma?s Florida, an advocacy group that pushes to return the state to pre 1920s levels of development; stated ?We ask all Floridians to join with us to push back the clock to a time when we had empty stretches of white beach, nothing but the sound of wild birds instead of cars??and Jim Crow laws to keep the darkies out.? Lupanare went on to explain her plan of action, ?We joined forces with Pat Robertson last year cause he said he had God?s cell number and would request the wrath of Mother Nature to wipe the state clean, but seeing as how that hasn?t worked out we turned to Exxon-Mobile, apparently there is a 50-50 change that when they drill for oil in the gulf they might actually open up a volcanic vent which would smother the state in a layer of lava. Either way the perpetrators will be punished.?

When asked for a comment, 30-gAy merely excused his behavior; ? I blame it on those fruit drinks with the little umbrellas, that and the fact that when I was a kid my hometown in Ohio was overdeveloped. I?m the victim here.?
