\nWar of the Roses – Hamptons Style<\/b>
\nA while back I was handling the sale of a property where the owners were going through …. shall I say… a bitter and nasty divorce. \u00a0 To give you some idea, if they had a baby Solomon would’ve had to cut the kid in two. \u00a0There was no middle ground! \u00a0 But wait, it gets better they were living in the house together until it sold!!! \u00a0 Yep, it was fun. \u00a0 Well, one day, we had scheduled an open house and I spoke to the husband and left the wife a message. \u00a0 \u00a0 I assumed all was well until I arrived and found the wife’s boyfriend parading around the house naked. \u00a0 As I was putting out my wrap sandwiches for the fellow brokers and prospective buyers said boyfriend informed me “I fell off my bike and scraped my butt, so I can’t wear any pants.” \u00a0Hmmmm. \u00a0 What about a blanket? \u00a0Nope, that won’t do it either, the fabric would be irritating. \u00a0 \u00a0 Can you go into a room and I’ll keep people out of that one? \u00a0Sure, that sounds liek a good idea. \u00a0Well despite my best warnings a neighbor who was “curious” didn’t listen to me and went into the room! \u00a0 OMG…SCREEECH! \u00a0 If only I had foresight to sell tickets!!<\/p>\n
Therapy and Miscellaneous Sightings! \u00a0<\/strong> <\/p>\n Finally a little bit of news that’s a tad more normal.<\/u>\u00a0 \u00a0A change of hands at the Southfork Kitchen in Bridgehampton. \u00a0 \u00a0A recent press release announced,\u00a0\u00a0“Glad you made it through the winter of 2013, Southfork Kitchen did\u00a0not. \u00a0We have passed the torch to the next chef, Todd Jacobs who will continue with local, season and sustainable cuisine. \u00a0We thank you for your patronage….” \u00a0I’m not sure if he’s the same Todd Jacobs but if he is the one I found in Google.. it sounds promising. \u00a0According to his bio of Atlantica Restaurant in Long Beach, “Todd Jacobs, chef\/owner of Tierra Mar and Atlantica is a graducate of the French Culinary Institute in Manhattan. \u00a0He spent six years running the kitchen at the American Hotel which received the Di Rona Award while he was there.”\u00a0 \u00a0<\/i>Sorry Southfork Kitchen but I found your menu,\u00a0expensive odd and pretentious. \u00a0 Here’s hoping for new and better things!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
\nYour broker knows more about you than you think. \u00a0 Especially if you’re the type that likes to leave everything out in the open. \u00a0 \u00a0 Some of the things I’ve come across \u00a0(I don’t particularly like this part of the job) range from the weird to the gross and the down right crazy. \u00a0 Now, some were former listings of mine and some were left in the open of houses I have shown for rent and for sale. \u00a0 \u00a0Once agin here are some of the wackiest things, in no particular order: condoms new and <\/u>used (ewwwww), humongous bongs, the book “Toxic Parents,” weird porn dvd’s, \u00a0half eaten sandwiches with 3″of mold, phallic toys, lice shampoo (ewwwwwwwwww again), \u00a0self portraits on velvet, labeled urns with an entire family on the fireplace mantel, court appearance notices and my personal favorite a geek shrine to C3P0 and R2D2\u00a0(literally A SHRINE!). \u00a0 \u00a0I really can’t make this stuff up.<\/p>\n\n\n
