Unbelievable! I just can't believe it! The stock market is dropping like a drunk walking down a flight of stairs, the economists are predicting another recession to what I thought was already a recession, police brutality continues to be a major problem everywhere leaving many running from the law for protection rather than running to the law for protection ( Fullerton, CA P.D. kill Kelly Thomas 6 vs.1, Arizona Immigration Law leaves latinos on edge), soldiers in the Army are commiting suicide at a rate of almost 1 per day (per July stats), and home values are as volitile as my exercise routine. Unbelievable! I just can't believe it! The negativity, the crime, the war, the sadness, the NBA lockout, foreclosures, celebrity deaths, unemployment, the S.D Padres in last place, I don't think I can take it anymore! No more bad news, please. No mas. What? No way, no how. Are you seroius? That's it! The camel's back has officially broken. Are you ready for this one? Kim Kardashian is tying the knot this weekend! Are you kidding me? Unbelievable! I just won't believe it!
Let's get something clear. The above scenario is real. The above scenario is an example of how people feel. The above scenario is sad. I make it a point to catch the fist 10 minutes of the nightly news every evening to catch the top stories, and I can't help but notice that every serious issue, every unfortunate event, every top headline is summed up in 10 minutes. The deaths, the economy, the unemployment, the crime, the debt, the brutality, the discrimination, 10 minutes, TOTAL! And then there is Kim Kardashian getting married, the Jersey Shore cast traveling to Italy and the Bachelor selecting a mate receiving tons more air time than I care for. As cliche as it sounds, CAN WE GET OUR PRIORITIES IN ORDER?
With the increase of reality shows in the last 10 years we have forgotten about REALITY, real people, real situations, real life! It has been a great pleasure for our real estate team to have been able to assist current enlisted soldiers in purchasing their home. To hear their real stories, their real life situations, their real life dedication, their REALITY, is pretty amazing. Let's be a lot more sensitive to the past, present, and future military of this country, because damn it, they deserve it. Let's get our priorities straight when it comes to reality t.v. Let's get real.Sorry Kim, you lose this war.
