All Bards Are Not Created Equal.
And Neither Are Real Estate Agents...
OK, so I "enhanced" this picture the other day while messing around with Photoshop.
And, as is the case with many of my "creations", I had no idea what to do with it. But I just knew I had to unleash it upon you, my dear readers!
I titled it "Bard" because thats what seemed to work. And then, I decided to look up the definition of the word "bard".
Apparently, according to the definition I came across, all bards are not created equal...
bard/bärd/
- A poet, traditionally one reciting epics and associated with a particular written tradition.
- A slice of bacon placed on meat or game before roasting
And, since this is, after all, a Real Estate blog, I decided to draw the analogy. Because...
All Bards Are Not Created Equal.
And Neither Are Real Estate Agents...
So, when you need a Real Estate agent in the Raleigh, Cary, Apex area of North Carolina, you have many choices. But, before hiring one to help you buy or sell a home, call me. I'll be happy to show you why....
All Bards Are Not Created Equal.
And Neither Are Real Estate Agents...
Craig Rutman is a North Carolina Residential Real Estate Specialist that can assist you with the purchase and/or sale of real estate in the Raleigh - Cary – Apex metro areas; or any place else in the country by connecting you with a relocation professional in your destination of choice.
I would have to say that you look like someone straight out of the Spanish Inquisition in that photo Craig.
Well take that feather and stick it in your cap, mister, you da Bard!
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but I think you are Jim Gardner's double. Action News Philadelphia.
Craigster indeed you are heads above other Realtors! Always standing out from the crowd.
Bacon!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love BACON!!!!!!!!!!!! and so do most other people. Most folks don't know what a bard is.
Craig "the bacon" Rutman is an awesome moniker I say.
Malcom - Ahhh, the Spanish Inquisition! Love some of those "remedies" they employed!
Cynthia - Thanks for the suggestion of where to put that feather Cynthia! I've been told other places to put it and they're not as kind!
Erv - Funny, I've often been told I look like a cross between Tom Cruise and Don Knotts, leaning slightly towards the Don Knotts side. What do you think?...
John - Just doing my best to bring something a little different to the table my friend.
Steve & Jan - Who doesn't love bacon?!! In fact, we love it so much, Heather and I went as "Bacon and Eggs" this past Halloween...
Steve beat me to it...BAAAAAACON!!! Some bacon is definitely better than others. That faux bacon made out of turkey someone made me eat the other day?? GAAAACKKKKK that was bad!!!
So if you need a NC agent, don't get a faux agent who's a real turkey, get the very flavorful high salt version: Craig!
Craig - like you point out not all "bards" are equal nor are Realtors. Anyone looking to buy or sell in the Cary, Apex, Raleigh, NC area should call on the best: Craig Rutman - the Realtor with experience, a proven track record who lives and plays in the neighborhod he sells homes in! Your market knowledge alone puts you ahead of the pack!
Home - ye oh, Home - ye oh, where for art thou my perfect home - ye oh. (Kind of like Romeo for the unimaginative). Let the Shakespeare of Realtors help you find your perfect home!
How many times do I have to say it!? You look just like Phil Collins!
Now.... about Bard! Never knew what that word meant (in fact, not sure I've ever heard it), but I have always known that no other Real Estate Agent will ever compare to you!
Good afternoon. Craig. Bard none, you have to be the best when it comes to Photoshopping...
Love your picture and the new header for Valentine's Day, Craig.
Another creative creation from the mind of Craig Rutman..at least you aren't the court jester!
Thanks for including the definition- it saved me a few clicks Mr. Baconhead. Very cool job on the photoshop!
So does that make pigs epic poets? They do possess all the bacon, but seem to have a limited vocabulary.
Craig, I don't even know where to begin with this...I do wonder what the Grand old Bard himself (William Shakespeare) would have thought of your analogy? Much Ado About "Bacon"???
I'm sorry, but I think you would have done Monty Python proud here. Where's the grail!
BLiz - "So if you need a NC agent, don't get a faux agent who's a real turkey, get the very flavorful high salt version: Craig!"..... HYSTERICAL!!!
Kristine - You know I'd debate you if I felt you were wrong Kristine!
Debb - The Shakespeare of Realtors... I like it! Nice Romeo rewrite there Debb!!!

Jane - Great things from England: The Beatles, Jane Peters, Monty Python!!!
First, always knew what a Bard was until I read your definition. Had ZERO clue it had anything at all to do with Bacon!!! Wow, I learn something everyday here in Active Rain lol :)! You are definitely correct, not all Real Estate Agents are created equal and if someone from Raleigh/Cary/Apex NC wants the best (bacon), they should contact Craig Rutman!

I've never even heard of "bard" before this. You've educated me today!

Oh no, it's Nostra Craigus and he's probably going to make some long term predictions on the Raleigh/Apex/Cary NC real estate market
Craig, You look like you couldn't make up your mind what to wear on your head for that reading in downtown Raleigh, so you just wore them all, oh mighty poet with the pen!
Gloria

Good morning Craig,
