Yesterday, I was listening to Marketplace on public radio. They had a piece on how to sell your house in a softening market. One of the suggestions on how to go the extra mile and think creatively (I don’t have a transcript) was that you should set up a blog about the house.

Now, maybe I’m behind the curve and people simply use “blog” and “website” interchangeably now. And maybe this is in fact a brilliant idea. But I just think hilarious. How would this work? Something like this?

Harry, we don’t often agree on a lot, but I must say you are soooo right. I just took a whiff of the upstairs commode and it smells like sunshine on a Spring day — not like our neighbors’ John at all. You need a HazMat suit just to go in there.

I see that the neighbors are putting their house on the market too. I wouldn’t buy from them in a million years. He’s quite a boozer and she receives a lot of deliverymen who don’t ask her to sign for their packages, if you know what I mean. Plus, I know that their roof needs to be replaced.

I was scrubbing the crapper today and I was thinking, “Man, whoever buys this house will be able to eat out of this thing!”
