Facebook Lost Your "Flair!"


Some of you aren't on the "New Facebook" yet, so you won't know what I'm talking about.

For everyone that likes to see the "Flair" application on other peoples pages, and now can't because of the "New Facebook" format......Fbook is working on it. Apparently, there is a TON of complaining going on about it (I heard some of it at Starbucks today).


See below for instructions, that were sent to my team manager yesterday... FJ


There will soon be an option to add a Flair tab to your profile, post flair directly onto your profile or a friend's profile, and a few other cool new features.

In the meantime, if flair is not showing on your boxes tab on the new Facebook site, follow these steps to get it back.
- Click on Pieces of Flair in your Applications menu to go to the app
- In the Applications menu, click on "Edit Pieces of Flair Settings"
- A settings box will appear
- Click on the "Profile" tab
- Next to Box, click "add"

This should put your flair back on your profile. Make sure you have also clicked on the blue "Update Profile" button in the app.

I am working on a new way to let you show off your flair on the Wall and Info sections of your profile. It will be available later this week.

Louis's and Fish Camp, are Closing...



In a sad state of affairs, Louis's has been sold to a Charleston restaurant group. Stunned....

Louis's and The Fish Camp Bar, is one of our favorite places to go at the beach. It's location, in the Pawley's Island Hammock Shops, made it easy to get to, and a fun place to hang out.

Every time we are in the Litchfield/Pawley's area, we visit Louis's more than any other place. Whether it was an after golf drink (she crab soup), late night hangin' out, nice dinner or Sunday brunch (on the way home), we loved the place. We probably have 10 of his "frosted cups" in the kitchen. I even have a couple of T-Shirts.

It seemed to be the hang out for DeB0rdieu, Litchfield and Pawley beach goers. We often saw people we knew, and loved it when "Deez Guys," or "The Ross Holmes Band" were jammin' in the gazebo beside the playground.

We've heard that it will be closed for some months, so the new owner can re-model the place.

I'm sure the new restaurant will be great, but I'm still shaking my head.

$$$ For $$$, This Is A Good One...







15 Westshire, Is For Sale...For $299,900.

This house is awesome. It has 3 BR's and 2.5 Baths, and "lives" large. Some features include hardwoods, smooth ceilings, awesome carpet upstairs, designer colors throughout, a large master suite and a great screened porch. The home sets up nicely for supper clubs and parties.

The eat-in kitchen sports white cabinets, stainless appliances, a cool island and granite slab counter tops.

"The Hamptons" is one of Columbia's most popular neighborhoods. It is packed full of newer (less than 10-20 year old) houses, that have popular floor plans, for today's entertaining families.

I must say, that if anyone out there is in the market for a house under $300K (or knows someone),...... this is probably it. When I walked in, I was impressed. If the downstairs doesn't sell it (inside and out), then the master and nursery will close the deal.

Call, email or text if you want to see inside....

"Hampton's Home" is For Sale...

This stately, all brick home home, is in one of Columbia's most popular neighborhoods. It boasts 3050 sq/ft, and has 3 BR's and 2.5 baths.

The "eat in" kitchen features black/white tile floors, a nice island and black granite counter tops. It also has a two car garage, and an incredible FROG (pictured).

There is over 500 unfinished feet in the attic, that is waiting to be sheet rocked. The 3rd floor is "floored," and stairs are already in place, to add more footage (and equity) to this fine home.

Real | Team Closes 4 Houses in 2 Days




I Flew Solo, In a Very Busy Week....

The week was especially hectic, b/c my "Team Manager" was in Garden City. We got it done, though.

The easiest one, was Sylvan Dr. (not pictured). N. King's Grant Dr. was BY FAR, the most difficult. I'll bet I spent over 20 hours at that house, trying to get letters cleared up and inspection issues finished. My car was in front of Jones Andrew's house for two straight days.
As a surprise, I received an offer on 8 Derby Ct. on Thursday. It took some doing, but we ratified a contract late today. My wife waited patiently, as we were supposed to leave for Litchfield around 5:00. We finally hit the road around 7:30.

Ole' Mike here, has written himself a song. It's called "Please Don't Vote For a Democrat." He's got a neat website to go along with it, and paid for a billboard complete with the fire filled World Trade Center. Yeah, it's sooo cool. He's even made it so that you can order his new song, for about $5.00. You will get the CD in 1 - 3 weeks.

I admire this man from St. Cloud, for being passionate about America. But I gotta tell ya, this is the kind of stuff that makes for such a divisive atmosphere...no matter what party you prefer.

I don't know if he thinks he's got a big hit, or if he thinks he's going to make a pile of money. Either way, I hope he didn't spend TOO much time playin' his guitar on top of his barn, to get it JUUUUST right.

Awful disgrace at worst, 15 minutes of fame at best. Worth it, Mike?
