My guess is, John L. Scott is too cheap to invest in "Sale Pending" signs. Instead, he gives his agents Sharpie markers and trains them rigorously on the drawing of quote marks.
And apparently John L. Scott doesn't get how URLs work. I'd have thought him pretty groovy if his website were actually at www.johnl.scott.com. It's not. I checked.
I don't know about everywhere else in the country, but in ThisStateThatILiveIn, that would almost seem appropriate. Of course it's available, they're all available. No houses have sold in a year and more and more get listed everyday. They're all "available". It could just as easily say, "Someone, please buy a 400% overly-inflated-priced house!!!!"
Please send your submissions via email to bethanykeeley (at) gmail.com. I look at them all, but it might take a while to get to yours -- sorry! I love you all, but I only have so much energy in a day.
If you want your picture to make the blog DO NOT @tweet them, or leave them in a comment. I need them all in the same place. Make sure your emails are easily distinguishable from spam or viruses (I use gmail web interface, so images get previews).
I don't usually post the following: newspaper headlines, personal email, craigslist postings, unprofessional websites. I also tend to not crosspost things from other blogs, since I have so much unique material waiting for me to get to it.
Things I see a lot: silica gel "do not eat"; hair dryer labels; inside the bus "do not drill"; Wal-mart sign about IDs; coffee machine with "2" cup sizes; employees must "wash hands"; that failblog post.

I think he is advertising opportunities for people to gain property by adverse posession.

Oops, yes, I just realized I put a redundancy in there. Sorry. You don't need to point it out.
Erm... well it's kind of vacant, so you could probably get away with squatting there for a while
