I'm Lani. I live in Austin, Texas (jealous?). I am the New Media Director of Single Pointe Realty (and AgentGenius.com). I keep this blog as my personal take on the market, the business of Real Estate, and the agents that make up the profession from all over the nation. Because I am not a licensed agent- I write commentary from the unique perspective of part consumer, part insider. Oh, and I have a ridiculous affinity for cheese.

We're a unique real estate company that doesn't operate as a traditional brokerage. We bring new technology, modern buying & selling strategies to our clients- it's been my job to create a home buying & selling experience that is fun, fresh, & exciting for today's Austin real estate consumer.

Bubble Gum Interview- Kris Berg

step-in-gum.jpgJust when you thought you knew your favorite bloggers, along comes the Bubble Gum Interviews. We ask the really tough questions about things like food preferences, high school stories and favorite hair products. As the ever popular Kris Berg of the San Diego Home Blog put it, this is her “career-ending opportunity” of a lifetime, so read on to learn why…

Name a superstition you have.

Never pick a penny up off of the ground unless it is lying face up (or tethered to #2 Cheese Enchilada Combo Plate).

Why is it called lipstick if you can still move your lips?

Can I? I’m blogging.

Tell us about that time in college when you did something bad.

I once forgot to take into account the fact that the rebar had been prestressed when calculating the tensile strength of a bridge footing in my Reinforced Concrete Lab. Oh, and something about a frat party.

What is your favorite drink at Starbucks, your favorite pizza, your favorite color, your favorite purse designer, your favorite dream car, and your favorite singer?

Grande white chocolate mocha, non-fat, no whip; the one that is delivered; chardonnay; Brinks; Oscar Meyer Weiner Mobile; and Deep Throat.

If William Shatner walked into your office, what portion of his career would leave you starstruck?

His portrayal of Alfalfa on the Little Rascals.

Tell us the story of getting engaged to Steve.

Without giving too much away, it involved a party, a Tall Scotch & Water with a Twist (or ten), midnight munchies, a drive-thru window, assorted food products named “Jack” (Bonus, Breakfast), two Super Tacos, a large order of fries and a couple of regrettable hangovers. Steve is such a romantic!

******************
So, there you have it.  Kris pines for the Oscar Meyer Wiener mobile chauffeured by William Shatner playing Alfalfa, driving her and Steve around while they reminisce about their overly romantic engagement.  Now that you really know Kris, what do you think?

    Thanks, Lani. That was fun! Your summary is more entertaining than the interview, I’m afraid. I’ve been lovin’ the bubblegum series - Keep up the fine blogging!

  2. Jonathan Dalton Says:

    I think the Chardonnay has re-initiated the headache from the bottle of Merlot I finished off at last night’s poker game.

    (The host makes his own wine … thus the wine at a poker game.)

  3. Jeremy Hart Says:

    I think there are several stories there left unfinished!

Enduring Bubble GumBubble Gum Inteviews

I've interviewed the elite in real estate- bubble gum style....

Bubble Gum Interview- Benn Rosales (My HUSBAND)!!!

A better question is do you think people who say smooth as a baby’s butt have ever changed a diaper? I mean seriously, why do we spend so much time dreaming of being younger or going back in time, or relating to childhood when we really should embrace the “now”. Looking backwards is so “life in reverse.”[…]
