Pimpin’ Ain’t Easy
FRANKLIN JONES: SECRET AGENT MAN
FITSNews – December 21, 2007 – If you’ve never visited the action-packed, “thrill-a-minute” website that is Franklin Jones “Real Team”, what the hell are you waiting for, people?
Sure, you might assume that a blog devoted exclusively to the Coldwell-Banker share of the Columbia, S.C. real estate market would be boring, but nothing could be further from the truth. Aside from his drop-dead gorgeous looks, there’s just something about this guy’s gripping prose and exquisitely-crafted witticisms that keep us coming back for more. Like when he refers to homes on the outskirts of Columbia’s lily-white neighborhoods as “border junk,” for example. Ahh … the poetry.
In addition to his probing social commentary, the site also features plenty of red-eyed red hot pictures of Franklin, who as far as we can tell is the closest thing to James Bond you’re going to find in South Carolina … assuming he learns how to tie a bowtie, anyway.
Plus – as much as we hate to admit it – his recap of this year’s Talbot’s fashion show was a helluva lot better than our hackneyed write-up, especially the part where he tells the Junior League girls, “In my bias, you are the best philanthopic organization in the midlands.”
Well “in our bias,” Franklin, you are a damn sexy beast … and we’re sure your brilliant marketing ploys will help you navigate the housing market downturn just fine.

Usually $$$+ BOOZE = hot women…I guess not in Franklin’s world. He must have skipped that class in real estate school.

Isn’t that the pot calling the kettle black.
sic(k) willie calling Frank”lin” Jones a “pimp.”
How much sleazy carpetbagger SCRG money has Frank”lin” taken to sell houses? Not much, if any, that we know of, so far.
We admit real estate might not be the most respected profession, but it’s above “pimp.” We can’t say that about professional political bloggers. Earl Capps is an exception – he’s not a professional.
Remember, 99.9 percent of pimps, political consultants and political bloggers – make the rest look bad.
sic(k) willie, which are you? And, is there a difference?

Classic. Thanks, FITS News. Love the link to the blog, too, and finding out about “Columbia’s leading neighborhood.” How could I have missed going there all these years???

Thanks for the plug, Sic. Hey – and btw, glad I could help YOU out on that house thing not long ago. You remember….after your infamous breakup…when the house you owned with your (former) fiancee was going into foreclosure? Happy we got that taken care of for you buddy – a foreclosure could’ve ruined your credit for life.

In response to comment #7 on this post;
Whoever is posing as me, please do not ever do it again. If you want to have fun on a blog or chat room, please refrain from doing it at my expense. Will’s post is funny, and a good read. Using my name as the author of something you wrote, is not.
I’m confident that anyone who knows me, recognizes that I wouldn’t have written the coment. Typing this, is my way of making sure…
Franklin Jones
