		<description>Hold up - hot tub?  Damn.  JEALOUS.

Also, regarding the Social Strategy post you did a while back.  A) *gushing* thanks for the flattery, and B) you realize the next step is to brand these blogs ala the DP crap a few of the MLS bloggers are doing.  Normally I would brush that crap off and not care but good lord their strategy is WORKING.  This is like the grassroots version of a Beckham brand perfume.  So bizzare.  Anyhoo, would love to get your thoughts on the whole phenomenon at some point.</description>
