Sarx (σαρξ) is the Greek word for "flesh". This is the blog of a Southern Man (sojourning in Buffalo, NY) attempting to follow God in the way of Jesus.

NB: I'm currently on a "Blogging Sabbatical" to celebrate my 15th Year of online Journaling. While "Daily Tweets", the occasional review of a book, movie or eatery and Photo Blogging all continue, the daily posts have stopped until January 2011. All comments are currently in moderation.

Would you do business with a Real Estate agent who can’t use the apostrophe?

Their URL is on the sign… Seriously, folks: a plural is a plural.
Possession or contraction requires an apostrophe. Your sign seems to
say someone name Condo is selling her apartments. BTW: the entire
city assumes that no one would ever visit here with cell phones.
That’s why almost no phone number is shown with the area code.

  • I wouldn’t do business with them. If they can’t get the basics such as the apostrophe right and, moreover, if, having made a mistake, they have no qualms about displaying it to the world with no effort at correction or improvement, I don’t see why I ought to trust them with something as significant as the purchasing of real estate.

    (Hello, Huw. Long time, no “speak”. Hope you’re well.)

      Indeed! That’s usually my point. Reminds me of resumes when they claim “I’m a stickler for details” and misspell a word or two in the same paragraph.

      Howdy! I hope things are going well for you there.
