I know I haven’t posted in a while, and so at this point this is almost a cop-out post, but I just had to spotlight a fun blog I just ran across.
I’m not in any way involved with or interested in real estate, but I am a fan of snark and humor. It’s Lovely! I’ll [...]
Rather than ammend my previous post again, I’ll just create a new one.
This is for the Watchmen newbies, or those who need a refresher. Realizing that Watchmen’s popularity is huge, but only among a narrow slice of society, and that before many people will be interested in seeing the movie, they’ll need to get the [...]
