Absolute-ly
I think we as humans are compelled by absolutes. The biggest, best, worst, funniest.
- The Oldest
- The Funniest
- The Ugliest
- The Scariest
- The Smallest
- The Largest
- The Most Controversial
- The Most Extravagant
- The Quirkiest
Your submissions are welcome - let me know if I've left out a great category or nominee! After all, when was the last time you heard someone brag about the most 'average' thing they ever saw?

New Frontiers for Sullivan Homes!
We can now be found on Facebook (link), and Myspace - so.....Find me on MySpace and be my friend! :) You can never have too many of those, right?
Clicking around these places, from a business standpoint, is similar to the Tourist Experience: you may initially stand out in your tropical shirt, but within a few days you manage to blend in a little better and feel almost native. Almost. It is way too interesting not to see beyond the Google search engine horizons and see what other people do, and where their circles of interest are. If there are over 50 million people on Facebook, that is a large chunk of our population that is not only online, but involved - and more and more are using it (and Myspace) as professional networking. I don't know about you, but I am far more likely to take an interest in something my friends recommend, than something a random algorithm generated. What do you think?

Trivial Fridays!
In honor of Fridays, here are some fun Home trivia facts:
The construction of the White House started in 1792 and was first occupied by President John Adams in 1800. The total cost was $232,372. link
The largest home in the U.S. is the Biltmore in Asheville, North Carolina. Completed in 1895, the George Vanderbilt estate took 6 years to build, and has 4 acres, 250 rooms, 43 bathrooms, 34 bedrooms, and 65 fireplaces. The Biltmore was modeled on sixteenth-century French chateux, and is on 125,000 acres. link
Contrary to popular belief, the original color palettes for Victorian homes were drab and dull, to blend in with their surroundings and their organic materials. link
The most reportedly haunted house in America is the Whaley House in San Diego, California. Built in 1857, the Whaley house was also not only the Whaley family residence, but also San Diego's first commercial theater and the county courthouse. Many people have visited the Whaley house convinced beyond all doubt of supernatural events. link
