JOKE OF THE DAY...

A father asked his 10-year old son if he knew about the birds and the bees.

"I don't want to know," the child said, bursting into tears. "Promise me you won't tell me."

Confused, the father asked what was wrong. The boy sobbed, "When I was six, I got the 'There's no Easter Bunny'speech. At seven, I got the 'There's no Tooth Fairy' speech. When Iwas eight, you hit me with the 'There's no Santa' speech.

If you're going to tell me that grown-ups don't really get laid, I'll have nothing left to live for."

QUOTE OF THE DAY

What a great inspiration!

Every memorable act in the history of the world is a triumph of enthusiasm. Nothing great was ever achieved without it because it gives any challenge or any occupation, no matter how frightening or difficult, a new meaning. Without enthusiasm you are doomed to a life of mediocrity but with it you can accomplish miracles.
Og Mandino

ROCKY POINT REAL ESTATE FROM THE GRAPEVINE...

Since we're not bound to any particular sect of the real estate world anymore, we thought we'd dish to you some grapevine whispers:

• Wayne Corcoran left (got fired?) from Realty Execs
• Riviera Real and TCG got together and had an amicable meeting with all the clients who purchased a condo at the project - all owners we've talked to so far told us they're happy with the results!
• Penasco Bay, aka Marriot resort is slowing up their plans to move forward. Why? We hear they're waiting for funding.
• Speaking of funding, La Perla is supposed to be waiting for funding as well.

Awesome that we're hearing good things about stalled projects! The market will pick up again, we're just still waiting for it. If enough people speak positively about these matters, then maybe Rocky Point will see a rise in sales again!

**DISCLAIMER** We do not deem any of the above information to be true or false. It is merely a report of things we have heard and have no connection or opinion preference to matter.

AWESOME EXPLINATION OF SUMMER...

The season is upon us, that time of year when days grow long and the sun bakes the earth. They’re the days that invite leisure, and they’re the days that tempt us to do nothing at all but lie around in exquisite comfort. It’s summer, and while our schedule still has a hint of the hectic, everything feels slower, and we relish it...

ROCKY POINT BLOGGER DOWN!

(sniff sniff) Hey everyone,

We caught a nasty flu bug of some sort, and it knocked us down! :( Beware if you wake up with a sore throat and don't do anything about it - NO, it will not go away. Day #2 isn't pretty...we're out of commission today (cough cough) and laying (more like writhing and being uncomfortable) in bed.

Being sick is about the most unglamourous thing in the world. We'll be back to normal very soon, though!

POLITICS

We read this morning that Ted Kennedy has been diagnosed with a cancerous brain tumor!

The 76-year-old was rushed to the hospital this past weekend with what family members thought was a stroke but ended up being a seizure caused by the malignant growth in his brain.

Malignant gliomas are a type of brain cancer diagnosed in about 9,000 Americans a year — and the most common type among adults. It's a starting diagnosis: How well patients fare depends on what specific tumor type is determined by further testing.

Average survival can range from less than a year for very advanced and aggressive types — such as glioblastomas — or to about five years for different types that are slower growing.

Let's all keep him in our thoughts...

KEEPING UP WITH THE ECONOMY

NEW YORK - Wall Street tumbled Tuesday after oil prices spiked to a new record above $129 a barrel and a government report raised investors' concerns about the impact of inflation on consumer spending. The Dow Jones industrials fell nearly 200 points...

A HEARTFELT POEM...

A Part Of America Died
Somebody killed a policeman today
And a part of America died...
A piece of our country he swore to protect
Will be buried with him at his side.
The beat that he walked was a battlefield, too,
Just as if he had gone off to war;
Though the flag of our nation won't fly at half-mast
To his name they will add a gold star.
The suspect that shot him will stand up in court
With counsel demanding his rights,
While a young widowed mother must work for her kids
And spend many long, lonely nights.
Yes, somebody killed a policeman today...
Maybe in your town or mine,
While we slept in comfort behind our locked doors
A cop put his life on the line.
Now his ghost walks the beat on a dark city street,
And he stands at each new rookie's side;
He answered the call... of himself gave his all,
And a part of America died...

AZ COPS

We just received this from Cathie Buckmister, a dear friend of ours in Mesa, AZ:

Hi everyone!
Today (May 15) is Peace Officers Memorial Day. It is the day that we honor the Fallen Peace Officers we lost during 2007. This year we are honoring Glendale P.D. Officer Anthony Jon Holly E.O.W. 2/19/2007, Mohave Co. Deputy Philip Rodriguez E. O. W. 4/21/2007, Phoenix P.D. Officer George Cortez E.O.W. 7/27/2007, Phoenix P.D. Officer Nicki James Erfle E.O.W. 9/18/2007, and Casa Grande P.D. Officer Sgt. Tate Lynch E.O.W. 10/25/2007. These brave men gave their lives along with 182 other Heroes throughout the United States last year. Sadly this year we have already lost 37 who will be honored at next year's ceremonies.
I couldn't make it to Police Week this year, but there are over 1,400 family members who are in attendance and have been to a candlelight vigil on Monday night, where their loved ones names were read, and now etched on the Memorial Wall. They have been to the Capitol Lawn and heard the President speak and honor their loved ones heroism. They are attending many seminars on grieving, and recieving tremendous support by counselors who donate their time just for them. More importantly, they are meeting other survivors who like themselves have suffered a loss they never thought they would have to bear, and making friends for life.
The next time you see a Police Officer, Border Patrol Agent, FBI Agent or any of those that serve and protect us, tell them thank you. They might not make it home that night to kiss thier loved ones again. And they will appreciate that you took the time to thank them.

ROCKY POINT LITERATURE

Here's a brand new catagory for your entertainment pleasure...we wrote a poem yesterday and want to share it with you all:

Sailboat sailing the Sea
Breeze blowing freely
Leisurely
Day at the beach
Yet peace of mind is out of my reach
Turmoil and struggle
With a backdrop of a perfect scenery.
Sea of Cortez
Lends its ear to me
Trying to think of the possibility
Of life improving
When will be my time
Sea - please send me a sign
Struggle and trouble
In this most perfect place
Finances, life's largest set-back
World wide economic slump
But the "world's aquarium" right in front
The anticipation of a break in the clouds
Hovering bringing the
Stifiling humidity like clockwork
A season of swelter until it breaks
When is OUR relief?
Pain in paradise is this oxymoron, twilight zone
Which we call home.

What do you think??

SOME GOOD NEWS!

From Ken Millar of Re/Max Alliance:

In regards to RE in AZ, I’d say that our “number of transactions” count in Maricopa is trending up; one report comparing March 08 to Feb. 08 showed a 27% improvement and a high compared to the previous 6 months. No one is taking the position that they have any pricing power yet and in fact, the median prices for homes is still slipping while not as much as before.

The units sold trend is encouraging that maybe we will start to see real improvement through the balance of ’08.

Encouraging!!

AZ C.O.P.S. Event
On April 26th 2008 AZ Concerns of Police Survivors had a Charity Benefit featuring Nashville Recording Artist Nick Nicholson and Allison Dubois of the NBC show "Medium". The REAL Allison Dubois! We had a great time, and Nick and Allison were very generous with their time, and we raised alot of money for our Chapter. It was great meeting them, and Allison brought a LADMO Bag to auction off, she actually paid $200 for the bag and donated it to us. Aaron was the one she "selected", and said it was Brett that had arranged the whole thing. I know he was there with us and enjoyed the evening as well. It was a night worth remembering, and I am personally grateful to both of them for their generosity!
