(705) 357-2177 * Sales Representative **Associate Broker ***Broker/Owner I think most of us can remember a couple of high school or college cronies who never quite fit into the real world. Well, that was my budd; David. A brilliant guy, but so eccentric that I al- ways wondered how he would make out in the world. Imagine my surprise the other day when ol' Dave called me up to say he was in town. I couldn't wait to see him, and was really dying to know what a guy like him had ended up doing for a living. It turned out that he tested other people's inventions for a marketing firm. We were in the middle of a heat wave, and he had brought tiny hand-held fans for our kids. Seeing those little fans Dave brought re- minded me to turn on our ceiling fan. There are lots of ways you can keep your house cooler. If you haven't got air conditioners, or don't want to turn them on so early in the summer, like me, fans can really help. If you've got a bathroom exhaust fan, turn it on after you bathe. When you use the burners on your stove to cook, a vent fan will exhaust heated air directly to the outside and take some of the load off your cooling system. This is some- thing that we're putting in during our kitchen renovations. : Did you know that an attic fan will direct hot, dead air out of your attic and reduce your attic temperature by as much as 20 degrees C (68 degrees F)? If you do have air conditioners, they won't have to run as often to fight off a hot attic. And ceiling fans will make you a lot more comfortable by circulating air. We've got them in the kitchen and the living room. We spent a pleasant evening with Dave, but he almost sent our cat Guildwood into orbit with a special ring he was wearing. It made a high-pitched noise to ward off unfriendly dogs, and also had an all-purpose attention-getting alarm. "The trouble with this," said Dave, "is that it also opens garage doors." Our son Kyle tried the ring on and said, "Boy, you'd have to be nuts to invent stuff like this. What geek thought of this?" "You're looking at him," said Dave, and we laughed until we cried.
