not very bright

i'm sure i wasn't the only one to receive this unusually well-written comment from "mike":

Hello. My wife and I bought our house about 6 months ago. It was a foreclosure and we were able to get a great deal on it. We also took advantage of the 8K tax credit so that definitely helped. We did an extensive remodeling job and now I want to refinance to cut the term to a 20 or 15 year loan. Does anyone know any good sites for mortgage information? Thanks!

well, "mike", you might could visit your banker and talk about refinancing options, or maybe you could google that. it seems to me there's no shortage of websites clamoring for attention on this topic.

what's interesting to me about your spam-of-non-sequitur is that you don't seem to provide me with any links of your own, so i have to assume your goal is to casually wander into people's blogs with that golly-gee-and-what's-all-this shiny baby face you have and get people to go google it for themselves.

maybe you're testing to see which of your spams produce hits on google, and maybe you're trying to create buzz for your "legitimate" "business", but by your friendly and personal tone i can just tell that you, regular guy, really think highly of our financially astute blogging and need our advice.

of course we want to jump in for you and run searches that match your "needs" and report back to you in our blogs which sites we recommend! of course we all want to be friendly and helpful and we'll all rush right out to do your googling for you and then post links and talk amongst ourselves about what sites we would definitely recommend to you and your lovely "wife".

so.

since i'm so kind-hearted, "mike", i've come up with a few things that i think you and your "wife" will find useful:

use your tax credit!
foreclosure deals!
refinance now!

"mike", the possibilities are nearly endless! there's so much good "information" out there, but i've really given it a lot of thought and come up with my three best options for you.

"mike", i hope this "helps".
