Okay,  If you travel through south side Corpus Christi daily then I'm sure you have noticed the past several months of construction on Wooldridge Road from Rodd field to Staples.  I have to agree it has been a long and inconvenient process but fortunately it seems to be coming to an end. I was actually reaping the benefits of the newly wide and nicely paved short cut on the way home the other day after work and decided it was definatly worth the wait.  I am sure all of the neighborhoods and restaurants along Wooldridge is celebrating on it's completion.  Don't get me wrong, I was probably the person grumbling the loudest while the construction was in progress  but the happiest with the completed results.

  I was out showing homes yesterday with a client, we pulled up to the first home we had an appointment to show and get out of the car....   The grass was literally shoulder high;  This was more than one month of growth but,  if that wasn't bad enough apparently the owners of the home were  more than likely higher than the grass in the front yard.     We walk up to the front door and the smell of freshly smoked pot hit us almost as hard as the blaring AC/DC song screaming from the front window which turned out to be the master bedroom.  The home was in total chaos.  It was sad b/c it look as if two small children lived in the home (by the looks of mattresses thrown on the floor in the princess pink and cowboy blue small bedrooms)  The bathroom was disgusting (as if we could smell anythi...

CorpusTV.com - 2008: The Year 2 Get Tough and Get InspiredMarch 1, 2008. Corpus Christi to Padre Island to Mustang Island to Port Aransas. By Mr. C. KIM McGuire, The Segway Guy TooMost people work the corporate grind taking orders from here and there and hope for 5 PM and Fridays to come Faster than taking a breath.†Most Realtors that are good at what they do work more hours than the corporate shuffle and don't have the time to wish for 5 PM or Fridays to come. How do you know which are the good Realtors? They answer their phones usually by the third ring or return the call within 2 hours if they were busy. In addition, they live by what they say with integrity and honesty! We work constantly and continuously, but we don't take orders from anyone but ourselves to do what is right and to...

KIM McGuireFreeze all ARM's and other specialty teaser rate loans that have kicked in already at higher rates, or about to kick in during the next three months, for at least six to eight months.

They shouldn't stop if they want to keep the house. I've heard of one Realtor so far who has advised his client to stop making payments and let the Realtor help working with the lender to do a short sale. First, a lender will usually ONL...

What percent of the 24 hour day are you not using the hot water? During those hours, you're automatically SPENDING money reheating the water in the hot water heater tank even when you don't need it and use it! Hmmm, kerchunk, kerchunk $$$?Your electric hot water heater is constantly reheating the water anytime it falls below the temperature that you've got set on the tank: usually 120 degrees or higher.

Also, plenty of liquids, vitamin C, and rest is required for a speedy recovery.There's also something called "Yin Chiao." I don't have any "data" on the effectiveness of that. Perhaps we can get Blog audience to weigh in on yin chiao.Let's STOP the Flu! Wash hands FREQUENTLY! Better yet, use Hand Sanitizers like "germ-X."Every day we are touching other people's ...
