Welcome to the Sellsius° 101 Blogoff<\/a>, a competition between Greg Swann of BloodhoundBlog<\/a> and Ardell DellaLoggia of SearchingSeattleBlog<\/a>, more famously of Rain City Guide<\/a>. The objective is for each of us to compose 101 relevant posts over the next 24 hours.<\/p>\n

This might sound like a dumb stunt, but, in fact, there may be no two people in the real estate blogosphere better-suited for such a test. Ardell and I write many posts and comments every day, and we each of us write with our own unique, easily-identified style. We are both smart, both opinionated, and both very forthcoming — to say the least — with our views. Moreover, each of has a very high moral commitment to quality in everything we do. So, although there may be a lot of blog entries posted in this contest, I don’t think there will be any wasted entries. Your attention will be repaid with knowledge, insight, wisdom and, one hopes, grace.<\/p>\n

I have beside me two quad-shot lattes, two chicken breasts, a glass of orange juice and a glass of water. I’m in this for the haul. Settle in and read, if you please. Comment where you will. I’ll see you in a hundred posts…
