So if all the snowbirds and snowflakes became frogs, then everyone really would be beside themselves

He frequently does. But I do think my post was somewhat funny.

[QUOTE=kcrazorbackfan;1111573]The last 2 homes we sold (and they sold only after we did this), we buried a statue of St. Joseph; following is instructions -

[I]"According to tradition if you really want to sell your home quickly you should bury a statue of St. Joseph upside down in the yard of your home. Praying to St. Joseph for a quick sale and burying a statue of him is said to always bring a fast offer on the home. Realtors and homeowners swear that this legend is true and that if you do bury a statue of St. Joseph while praying for a quick sale that your prayers will be answered.

Thank you for sharing this. I had never heard it before and really enjoyed it. I'm planning to save these instructions for future reference.
