 Happy 2013! It's great to JAB with you this side of December's madness ~ minds are teeming with big ideas and great plans-of-action, fueled by the previous weeks' festivities. But here we are, Day 3 of the new year, and already resolutions are being tossed out with the holiday decorations! Lucky for you, JABBERS are standing by with the quality recommendations and referrals you need to help you meet those lofty goals. (And while they're at it, they can help you find an overnight cruise for your in-laws).
At JAB, we resolve to be that community of friends who know EVERYTHING. JABBERS can help you find a hypnotherapist to help you quit smoking, a local surfing instructor with a great sense of humor, and an interior designer to update your home. Working on inner beauty? We know charitable organizations to donate your time and money to. Resolved to declutter? We have a network of almost 30,000 subscribers ready to buy your old treadmill or iPhone 4S, sell you a paper shredder, or find you a cleaning service. DON'T GIVE UP, JABBERS. All you have to do is ask HERE.
Happy New Year and Happy JABBING!
- Team JAB

Hypnotherapist Help
Friends in California swear by hypnotherapy as a way to quit smoking. Please help me find a local specialist, as my husband wants to travel to Los Angeles to see their "miracle worker". And if you successfully quit using hypnosis, I would love to hear about it!

Surfing Safari
From Rebecca Kerster: REPLY Ever since I was a (land-locked) teenager, I have dreamed of riding the waves. I have resolved to do it in 2013. Can you help me find group or private surfing or paddle-boarding lessons in the Deerfield/Hillsboro Beach area? I'm looking for an instructor with patience and a good sense of humor, as we are both going to need it!

 Gracias, Merci, Gratzi, Arigato!
From Team JAB You have to admit, Mom did know best when she gently nudged you (or gave you her famous piercing stare) to use your manners and say thank you. Many of you have told us how nice it is to receive thank you emails from complete strangers when you share your resources. So if you've been fortunate enough to watch recommendations fill your inbox, your graciousness and appreciation will make it all worthwhile. After all, isn't that what JAB is all about?

From Dayleen Garcia: REPLY I am a FEMA adjuster searching for a short-term rental in New York (Queens or Manhattan) while I work on claims related to Hurricane Sandy. I would like to pay around $1500 per month, for two months. If you or someone you know has a place to rent, please contact me. Thanks.

Orlando OutingFrom Jennifer Gaetan: REPLY Orlando, here we come! Now we just need a place to stay. Are you renting a two-to three-bedroom timeshare for a few days in January? If so, please contact me. The Wyndham Bonnet Creek Resort is preferred, but we are open to other locations. Thank you!
