I'm #1!!!

Well, as of today (January 23, 2009) my blog profile is the number one search result for Google. There are other people that come up as well, boo-hiss...

Anyway, I'd rather some of the other things for me come up, like:

My Real Estate Website
My personal website
My Facebook page
My Homes For Atlanta website

It's nice to be #1!

New website

I created a new website for our house/personal stuff. I really like Apple's iWeb.

Let me know what you think:

What do you think?

Money lives on the other side of fear

It's finally official - yesterday I submitted my resignation at Georgia Tech. My last day of employment there will be May 5.

Randy and I are so excited to be working together full time in real estate. YAY!!!

The title of my post is from "The Millionaire Real Estate Investor" by Gary Keller. I started reading it last weekend. It's a pretty powerful quote...

I'm still here!

Wow, it's been a month since I've posted. I'm sure my avid reader(s) will be glad I'm back. ;)

Anyway, Randy and I have just been busy busy. His mother and step dad visited last week and it seems we always have real estate work to do - that's a good thing.

One interesting thing that happened in the past month was that I got an email from Pheobe Allen's (my college art professor) husband. Turns out she and her husband are still in Louisiana and they recently created a website showcasing her work. Personally I think it's pretty good stuff!

p.s. I'm not 100% sure how they found me, I'm assuming a Google search for her name came back with a link to my post...

An interesting Google search

I occasionally search for myself on Google to see the results. I'm happy to say that most of the top hits are me - natch!

Google search for Jonathan Huff

Additionally, several of the photos in the "images" section of Google are either me or my house. :)

However, today I decided to also search for Jon Huff - not me!?!? I'll have to work on that:

Google search for Jon Huff

I did join the Xanga blogring for Jon Huff. Heh. One sort of funny/disturbing image that showed up is from Rootsweb.com. It's a death certificate for John Huff dated July 27, 1927:

It's not too clear, but doesn't the cause of death read "Died from drinking rubbing alcohol"???? Lord, I hope I go from something other than that - something like gin or whiskey. :)

What does Google return for you?

A cultural shift

Last weekend was a cultural shift of sorts for Randy and me - a week in South Beach. Fun fun fun! The weather was awesome and we got to spend lots of time with friends from all over the country.

This morning on my way to work while listening to NPR I heard a heart warming story of a different kind of culture shift. After the story aired, I couldn't help but wonder how much better the world would be if more people were like the couple featured. In case you don't have time to read/listen to the story it basically centers around a South Korean couple who have been married 40 years. The central part of the piece featured the wife's insistence that her husband vocally express his love and happiness for her instead of taking the usual staid attitude of most South Korean men. Lovely actually.
