The Feed Bag - Fraud Playboy White People Bear Sterns Eviction Photoshop
March 21st, 2008 The Feed Bag
The weekly wrap up of all that I found shiny
How many people were at the game? Lots and lots and lots. No empty seats at all. Diario Sportivo AS: I Wasnt Expecting The Spanish Inquisition at Photoshop Disasters Blog. A new guilty pleasure.
Okay so maybe a blog about photoshop mistakes isnt really a guilty pleasure. I just said that to encourage clicking through. So heres a real guilty pleasure
Stuff White People Like. I kid you not. I was worried I was going to be potentially offended, but clicked through and discovered well that I liked it. In fact I liked a whole lot of it. Im almost ready to come out of the closet and announce I am a white person, just not today. Meanwhile Ill dream of hosting a Dinner Party.
Maureen Francis at MiOakland County #1 Rule in Home Staging . . . No Playboy Bunnies! Um yeah I just linked to have an excuse to use a playboy bunny as a legitimate contextual image. Apparently some old people find images of playboy bunnies offensive. Lets face it though, times have changed and Playboy Bunnies seem kitsch now. Kinda like the paintings of women on the noses of WWII bombers. Better than ballet though. You would think women dancing around in skimpy coustumes would be hawt, but ballet is a truck of fail on that account. Sorry Kelley.
But yeah Maureen is correct that neutralizing your home is important. I dont think it should be sterile of humanity, but collections of anything need to be culled down.
Link to video of a Baltimore Landlord trying to evict a tenant that hasnt paid rent from the moment they moved into the apartment. Watch as the forces of justice are thwarted by a simple little trick that will have you screaming into pillows. Hat tip Jessica Beganski at Real Real Estate in Connecticut.
One of Realtor Magazines vaulted 30 under 30 gets nailed for fraud. Lots and lots of fraud. Awww but shes cute.
The Real Estate Bloggers ponder if Fed Chairman Bernake is upside down in his house in Washington.
Much of the financial chaos of the week came from the collapse of Bear Sterns. Coverage is up at AZ Mortgage Guru, Matrix and Lenderama. Following along is a selection of short videos showing how I really think everyone was caught by surprise at the speed Bear Sterns went down in a flaming heap.
Jim Cramer gets Bear Sterns slightly wrong. Slightly.
Backpedalling slightly. Slightly.
A pesky blogger pokes around the whole thing.
and youve been fed.
