What? Not dramatic enough? What if I throw in a subplot about a plumber?

Here's the plot of the next great movie. A man is sitting in the middle of a busy city, working on a laptop on something, we don't know what. As he looks up, he begins to pick out random people in the crowd, some of whom meet his eyes, some of whom don't. The music picks up, getting more and more tense. (Lots of violins.) The crowd thins out a little, and we see, sitting across from the man, a woman, too, working on HER laptop.

He meets her eyes, and hears her talking on the cell phone. He realizes... she is his NEIGHBOR, and she's looking to sell HER house, too. TWO houses for sale on the same street at the same time. Disaster!

The music swells. He's got to beat her. He's got to get his house on the market. She stands up and says to the person on the other end of the line that she's going to drive to a realtors' office. The man thinks, frantically. HOW CAN HE BEAT HER?

Then he remembers Clicksmart. With a smile, he selects the bookmart for the Clicksmart website, the site with links to just about every professional anyone could want. He types in the words Realtor in San Antonio, sits back, and gets a list of many, many real estate agents in his area.

He sips his coffee and enjoys the day as he peruses the list of San Antonio Realtors who will soon be listing his house for sale before his nemesis Laptop Lady even reaches the first agent's office.

THE END. Except for you. If you need a professional, go to Clicksmart, where you'll be able to search for the professsional you want in the area you are.
