competence (again)

realtor n. (syn.) real estate agent; housing agent; real estate professional (joke). having met various specimens on both sides of the ocean and in different parts of the country, the inescapable conclusion i draw is, they're good at sales talk. not to be confused with actual processing of information through the cerebra.

come to think of it, this post might also apply to:
lawyer n. (syn.) advocate; counsel; legal adviser (joke?).
bank officer n. (syn.) financier; broker; relationship manager (again, joke).
perhaps not the lawyer, if he sticks to his mandate.

the one professional who i would not dream of blogging about, and to whom we are abjectly in deference, is the accountant n. who unravels HOM's taxes.
