This is yet another technology post… and there are so many other things I want to blog about… but I just can’t move past this until I get it out. I’ll include a bonus for those few of you that stick it our for a few minutes.
It all starts out in

If you think I could let this one go, you have another think… And it is coming as fast as this thing was going.
For the first “video in a blog” post I HAVE to put this one up. The only connection to real estate is that I found it posted on Jay Thompson’s (The Phoenix Real Estate Guy) blog. If you are looking for real estate in Phoenix, give Jay a shout… or give me a shout and I’ll send a referral. Jay is a fellow Active Rainer, as well as a good guy. I know he’s going to find this, because I’m on his subscribed list…
So, without further ado, here is the video…
Thanksgiving and parades…

I’ve been watching some of the NBC and CBS coverage of the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade. My wife is a (semi)reformed band geek, so she wanted to see the parade. Also, since WCC (World’s Cutest Child) likes parades, we had a triple reason to tune in (1 for the wife, and 2 for the kid).
Football Night in America… ok, Lilburn

We just got back from a fun event. Ok, if I were a serious fan of Parkview, it might not have been as fun… but if I were a serious fan of Brookwood, it would have been a hoot. But, I’m not going to actually talk about the game, except in the most circumspect of ways. I want to talk about the event.
Despite our best intentions, we didn’t get up to Parkview High School until almost 7:15. Since the game was scheduled to start at 7:30, we thought it would be ok… and if it weren’t for the fact that the average fan was parking no closer than Snellville (where everybody is somebody!), that would have been plenty of time. So, we saw people walking a mile away… and I was thinking that with a pregnant wife and a three year old,
Lend me your “too cool” garage… ok, just tell me about it!

I was going to call this post “A funny thing happened on my way to the Search Engine Results…” and then start it with… I got hijacked. It was one of them long-tailed searches. They sure are sneaky. But, I got hijacked with a different idea, sooo…
I got hijacked. It was one of them long-tailed searches. They sure are sneaky.
This one was called “cool garage toys”. Now, if you take a look at my tags, you’ll see that I have around 30 posts that mention garages. I have over 100 that involve real estate. One might think that I would get some search engine lovin’ for real estate… but, nope. It’s all about garages.
Seriously, my top six search terms are all garages. Now, I will say that there is one post I have here that has surpassed all others in contacts… my phone rings twice a week over it, and it is real estate related, but nobody that calls has the $20M to actually do it, and they just want me to tell all of my secrets… but, for the most part, I think that most of my Googling readers are hitting me looking for the grooviest and coolest garage stuff.
Being a tech savvy guy (think Steve Martin’s “wild and craaazy guys” line), as well as a garage geek and swift thinking marketer, I have a solution. I want to see YOUR garage. That’s right… YOUR garage.
So, being the swifty that I am, after a mere 4 1/2 months, I have figure out that I need to showcase some cool garages. Now, of course this blog isn’t the best platform for it, but I do have a real estate and garage website (duh!) that would be perfect.
No charge. No geographical restrictions. No pressure. I’d just like to see some cool garages. I might even be able to put you on the front lines of a cool reward I’m looking to announce in a week or two as well.
The only thing I ask is that they look better than the sad sack I have pictures of here. This is a truly terrible garage. It is clogged with crap, and needs a much better system for storage. I just haven’t had the time of money to finish the projects that is clogging it up… Talk to my wife. As soon as she let’s me, I will clean it up and turn it into the 26’x24′ one car garage it always wanted to be… with attached tool room.
So, comment and send me an email. I’ll gladly feature YOUR garage on my website. For the whole world to see. Maybe my wife will stop buying purses long enough for me to do something with my own garage.
Oh yeah… If you need a bigger garage, let me know. I’m in Gwinnett County, GA and also work South Hall and South Forsyth. Furthermore, I have agents all over the country that would love to get a “car people” referral.
