In the midst of my online holiday shopping last night, one pop up lead to another and I wound up at www.2spare.com where the title "Stange Houses Around The World" caught my interest.
I will let everyone make their own judgements, but I think we would all agree that any of these homes would make a pretty cool listing!! Take a break from your hectic schedule and check these out.
1. 
Space Ship
2. 
There was an old woman who lived in a shoe!
3.

4. 
Who wouldn't like to live in a sand castle??
5.

Make it an Awesome Day!!

Just a quick blog to wish everyone a safe and happy Thanksgiving!!
I also wanted to leave you with a funny blurb I found on CRACKED.Com. I got a ton of responses on my best and worst haloween candy blog that I wanted to do something similar for Thanksgiving.
I didnt find a good chart, but I did find something unexpected in the "Bad For You" Section of the article. Enjoy!!!
FAMILY AWKWARDNESS 
Not so much a food as a Thanksgiving staple, family awkwardness is quite possibly the most enduring tradition of the holiday. When Abraham Lincoln made Thanksgiving a national holiday, he said, "On this Thanksgiving day, we proclaim that you must talk to your relatives and pretend to enjoy it." So whether it's trying to avoid broaching the topic of the recent elections, listening to your uncle talk about every detail of his recent knee surgery or simply the pointing out of things going on television ("Oh look, it's the Garfield balloon." "Yeah. They had one last year, too."), things are bound to be more than cringe-inducingly uncomfortable. At least they (or you) will be dead soon. No hats, but certainly several therapy bills are in order.
Make it an awesome day & an awesome holiday!!

Mike Capuzzi is the creator of CopyDoodles. CopyDoodles are a sort of "informal" way to catch the eye of your intended reader. You sign up for the program, and Mike will send you a instructions manual and a cd with thousands of possible copydoodles.
You follow the simple directions of getting them on your computer, and you can place them in absolutely anything you wish. I personally like to ad them to Newsletters, and my first forms of contact, especially the envelopes.
If you dont know what I'm talking about I absiolutely encourage you to visit www.copydoodles.com
Here are just a few examples of how you could use them.
If you decide to visit the website you will come upon Mike's.....

Add new life and energy to tired copy without having to change a single word. There's no better, faster, more cost-effective way to generate new life out of your copy! |
 |
Saves you hours and hours of time. I have done the hard work for you. CopyDoodles enables you grab your readers by their eyeballs and get them to read your copy the way you want them to! |
 |
CopyDoodles are great for sparking fresh ideas. I have heard from several CopyDoodles customers that just having the vast library of triggers, phrases, and expressions gets their copywriting juices flowing. |
 |
CopyDoodles are fun to use! Be careful though, using CopyDoodles can become addictive. |
 |
CopyDoodles can save you thousands of dollars in expensive graphic design fees. |
 |
CopyDoodles are digitally processed to have a hand-drawn and hand-written look to them, especially when you overlay them on top of your copy (a feature of CopyDoodles' transparent backgrounds). This unbelievable level of realism adds a unique look and feel typically unavailable until now. |
I agree with all of them! They have already showed me a higher return rate in my mailers, and on top of that they're just fun to use!
I really hope some of you try it out, and afterwards...let me know what you think!!
Make it an awesome day!

Phinally!!!! If you haven't heard the news yet, you've been living under a rock, The Philadelphia Phillies won the 2008 World Series! It didn't take me more than a few seconds to realize that this is an event that does not come around more than once or twice in a life time, and I was going to make the most of it.
After watching the final game on the edge of my seat, I was so thirlled that I decided to take part in the festivities. Me, my daughter Kalee and my son Connor, all woke up early this morning, snatched up some new phillies gear and headed for the train. It was the most chaos I have seen in my entire life. Trains filled to the brim with excited Phillies fans all trying to play a part in history. It was an amazing feeling, and I will never forget it.
From the train station to Broad Street you couldn't move an inch, and as far as the eye could see it was just red red red. As fun and exciting as everything was, the father in me couldn't help but keep my kids glued to my side. And the firefighter in me couldn't help but expect the worst with 2 million people, half of them drunk, all trying to catch a glimpse of the parade.
Strangely enough we got a decent view. We watched for a while, screamed our lungs out, talked to a couple Phans and were ready to head home.
As hectic as this day was, I wouldn't trade it for the world. I shared something with my kids that they will remember for the rest of their lives, as will I. I also shared something with all of Philadelphia. And I can finally say, that it in fact DOES pay off the be a Philadelphia Phillies Phan!!!
Make it an awesome day! ( I know I did)

The Glen Russell Team list and sell real estate in: Montgomery, Chester, and Berks County.
ONE SATISFIED CLIENT AFTER THE NEXT....
"The Team excelled at customer service. Getting back to us and answering all of our questions were no problem for them. We would use Keller Williams Realty & The Glen Russell Team again! We couldn't think of one thing they could improve upon." The Faiths
"We had a unique situation and the Team never gave up trying to find the right home for us. We have used the team more than once. Several of my family members have used the Glen Russell team for their real estate needs. They did an excellent job overall and always stayed in touch with us." - The Schaeffer's
"We had found a home we really wanted soon after listing ours. Glen calmed our fears of not being able to move forward by guaranteeing the sale of our home in writing so we could put in a firm offer with no contingency. Even better, the Team sold our home for more than our asking price in time to close on our new house. When we sold our first home with Glen, he offered an 18th month guarantee. If we were not satisfied he would sell our house for free. We decided to move within the 18 months, and his team sold us the home we always wanted - for FREE! Thanks Glen Russell Team!" The Santangelo's
"The very best realtor I've ever had; he's exceptional! Glen Russell helped me out so much. I can't say enough good things about all he did for me. He was always there to answer any question I had, and made me so relaxed during the whole process. He sold both of my homes in 3 days!!!!! The Glen Russell Team will never let you down." Dawn Wrenfrow 2005
"The Glen Russell Team excels at following up with phone calls and attention to detail. I felt like I was taken care of and someone was always in my corner. I would use The Glen Russell Team again. - Megan Bell
"In these uncertain times in the real estate market, we turned to the Glen Russell Team to sell our house. Having used the Glen Russell Team in the past, we knew that Glen and his team would be aggressive in marketing our house. To our delight, we received an acceptable offer within 10 days of listing the house. We were hoping for it to sell quickly, but never dreamed it would have happened so fast. We give thanks and credit to Glen and his team for marketing and ultimately selling our house. The entire selling process could have been a stressful time for our family, but thanks for Glen, it was a seamless transaction. It just goes to show you, if you hire the right realtor, your house will not sit on the market even during a slow period." Yvonne Rantz 2008
"I have had the distinct pleasure of working with the Glen Russell Team twice. The first time was to sell my mother's house. During this extremely stressful time, Glen was always available to take my call and answer every question I had. He had a list of contractors available, and I used several of them to work on the house. They all did great work and were very reasonably priced. Glen made solid suggestions and by following them, the house sold in 2 hours at our asking price. A year later, I went to the team again, but this time to sell and purchase a home for my family. I worked with Coleen and she was always willing to answer any of my questions and handle everything that i threw at her. She was extremely professional and such a pleasure to work with. Again, with the suggestions from Glen we were able to sell our home in 5 days. After a lot of hard work, this team put my family in our dream home! I have been tremendously pleased and satisfied with the energy of the Glen Russell Team. I would recommend this team of professionals to anyone buying or selling a house." Pam Myers 2005
