The Gene Molloy Real Estate Blog

May. 19, 2006 - Blogging In A Plain Brown Wrapper

Some real estate bloggers squabble a little sometimes. They come in all shapes and sizes. They have different mind sets. They have different purposes. They have different styles. They have different audiences in different parts of the country.

 

Some blogs are technical. Some are funny. Some are personal. Some are about housing styles. Some are lists of other blogs. Most are a conglomeration of a lot of things.

 

One real estate blogger recently sent out a post to a national blogging forum trying to teach other bloggers how to steal pictures from the internet to kind of dress up your blog. I'm sure it was just a mistake, but as we all know (or should know) ignorance is no defense. Any how, the idea was that people need visually pretty stuff to look at while they are reading your blog.

 

I guess I should apologize to my faithful readers. My blog comes in a plain brown wrapper. Yeah, I know, I should probably put my high school year book photo on it, instead of the true to life image that appears up there to your right. If nothing else, perhaps I should have my mustache airbrushed out so I would appear to be a young, vibrant stud muffin. Would you like to see me in my speedos maybe, standing in front of Molloy's Pub in Dublin?

 

Sorry, no window dressing here. I do have the delusion though, that if you want a good REALTORŪ to help you buy or sell some real estate in the greater metropolitan Chicagoland area you will call me anyway. I'm almost famous.

 

As always, if you have found yourself receiving my blog postings via e-mail, it is because I have either blogged about you personally, blogged about something I know is of interest to you, or I consider you to be a person of deep thinking and intellect and I would love to have you occasionally commenting on my blog. If you would like to be removed from the list simply send me an e-mail saying so.

Hmmmm. Your generation and mine remember that only "girlie" magazines came in brown paper wrappers. Hmmmm. I can't get a visual here! I think I'll skip the Speedo! ;-)

Is " "Would you like to see me in my speedos maybe, standing in front of Molloy's Pub in Dublin? " a reference to another blog with an offer to post her picture in a bikini at a yacht broker? Or just a mere coincidence?

I like the Gene Molly blog "In a Plain Brown Wrapper " fine. Thanks!
