There are some weird people on internet. I never really believed it until last summer when I became aware of a demented blogger lurking on StPaulRealEstateblog.com. He shows up in my comments and on my side bar as a spider. I thought there was something wrong with my browser at first so I switched to Firefox which is not as buggy.
I found an old photo of him that according to the people at the post office was taken in the 1970′s. I am told that he is around 120 years old and has been a REALTOR and Mortgage broker for the last 100 years. He once told a reporter that he spent his first commission on a model T and that he really wishes he would have kept the car.
On one of his blogs, Mortgages Undressed, Larry Cragun, if that is his real name, runs a post every Saturday called "bugs undressed" he posts disgusting pictures of insects and asks his readers not to bug him on Saturday, which leads me to believe that he may be a mortgage broker posing as a REALTOR . Lenders play golf on Saturdays while REALTORS are out working. I’ll give him the benefit of the doubt because at his age he probably deserves a day off.
Here is a recent picture of Larry. Apparently he is also a singer. Please click on the link and listen to Larry’s song. He is pretty talented.
Have a great day, don’t bug Larry.
Thanks to Bonnie Erickson of Real Estate Snippets for sending the link to the singing bug.

I just don’t believe you. It never ends. My wife says I can never top that. Lar
Larry – does this mean that I need to keep the white flag handy? Did I go too far with this one? Should I have left out the part about the post office? You may not be able to top but I refuse to beleive you won’t try.
Teresa – I’m starting to know you better by reading your stuff and I absolutely love your sense of humor. Now I understand what the Codger’s talk about!

Ines – if you understand what the codgers are talking about, could you please explain it to me? I noticed they started calling me brokerbloggoddess and I saw the post about how I hurl potato chip dregs and lightening bolts from mount bloggious, but the truth is I realy don’t get old people all that well and they may be even older than Cragun.
I knew you’d make something wonderful out of this to jab at Larry. That’s why I didn’t post it on my blog. It wouldn’t have had quite the impact it did here! Larry just wasn’t listening when the white flag was raised and I told him it would NEVER be over! He doesn’t know you well enough! Have a great buggy Friday!
Bonnie – it was Larry that started it again, but it seems to me that you are the instigator you sent me the link to the singing bug because you knew that I could not let it pass by. I kind of wonder if the two of you did not set me up.
As for the white flag, Larry has been kind of bad lately, I guess when I am bad I do it in a big way, he is a little more subtle.
T,
I pulled that up in my feedreader… but it was playing BEFORE I saw the post – so I thought some hacker cracked my computer!
I started closing windows to see where it was coming from – then reloaded the feedreader to find out it was you.
You had me going there, for a minute.
(I’m a little gun shy ’cause of my recent computer issues… LOL)
Doug – I though you guys all got me by now. You should never be surprised at anything on my blog. Well I guess you did not know that it was coming from my blog.
