Looking Out From the Garage: And now for something completely different... part 37

And now for something completely different... part 37

While on another site, I ran across a fun little "tool" that is strictly for fun. It's even kind of real estate related...

Basically, you enter a few things about yourself on a questionnaire, and a home is generated for you. Mine had one of my garages full of Ferraris. How appropriate is that? I don't even remember a question about cars, although there was a box to check for welding.

Now I'm trying to figure out how to use something like this for viral marketing.



Your home is a

Magnate's Hideout

Your kitchen is someplace you never go, because you "have people for that." There's a Chocolatessin, a word you made up yourself, but that is beginning to catch on among your wealthy neighbors. Your master bedroom is the size of a small barn, with carpet thick enough to reach your ankles. Your study has hardback editions of every classic ever written, plus a special edition of Rich Dad, Poor Dad with the parts you ghost-authored highlighted. One of your garages holds your collection of ferraris, and is measured in acreage.

Your home also includes a guest wing and private quarters for your servants. Your guests enjoy your collection of every console and associated game ever made. Except the Intellivision -- those controllers drive them NUTS. Outside is your hedge maze and gardens, meticulously tended by a team of world-class botanists.

And, you have a pet -- a doberman pincer named "Warren".

Below is a snippet of the blueprints:

Lane,

Gotta go and try this right now--I must say your title "And now for something completely different" caught my eye!

Thought it was going  to be a little cooler. I try it several times with different selections and a lot of the same remarks come up. It also said I had a garage full of ferraris and then showed Hummers on the blueprint.

Could use some refinement but a neat idea.

Faith... are you a Monty Python fan? 

Craig... I was upset about the H2... it's a mall crawler.

Cute site...

My new pet -- a unicorn named "Shadowhooves" should fit right in with the rest of the family... I do live in Missouri, you know!

Where are you in MO?  My ex-sister-in-law is in Springfield... I think.
