You're Doing It Wrong



I have a great idea. Actually, strike that, I have a couple of great ideas.

Idea Number One: Put your apartment up for sale in the midst of the worst real estate crashes the country has seen in a few generations.
Idea Number Two: Drive to your nearest circus, distract the lion tamer just long enough to steal Barnum's multi-colored triangle banner from the 70's and attach said circus multi-colored triangle banner from the 70's to the facade of your building to draw in real-estate moguls looking for an apartment on the corner of Assault St. and With a Deadly Weapon Ln.

Do you like these ideas? No? Well, then in that case you probably aren't going to appreciate the hard work some dude invested in moving his piece of property...



Oh shit! Idea Number Three: In the middle of a dark, December night go down the block and thieve a big yellow "Estate Sale" yard sign from a different house. You don't have a yard you say? No problem I say. Spork that baby in your (dead) flower basket; problem solved.

Out for a stroll this AM, I came upon this building. After wiping away my frozen tears of laughter, I stole a quick snapshot. I even did some investigation and found out from a local resident that not only has the apartment been for sale for numerous months, but that the original sign, used-car banner and "Estate Sale" sign have all progressively appeared.

"So there is no Estate Sale today and tomorrow?" I inquired. "Does that look like an Estate to you?" Came the retort. Good point.

Dear 1752 N. Assault Road Resident - You are doing it wrong.
