In my ongoing endeavour to be different but mostly wierd I will be cooking a 22lb turkey in a trashcan this thanksgiving. No this is not some southern version of Americas Funniest Videos.

I attended a seminar today put on by a realtor association/vendor regarding the use of social networking and technology in the real estate business.
