There’s always something to howl about.

From the what-took-you-so-long? department: Introducing Tom Johnson

Joining us today as a contributor is a frequent commenter and long-time friend of BloodhoundBlog, Tom Johnson.

I’ve thought about adding Tom to our roster more than once over the year, but I never pulled the trigger. It was my soul’s sister in Dayton, Teri Lussier, who made the connection I had been missing.

Tom is a Realtor in Houston, which necessarily implies that he likes to drive a lot. Wife, kid, dog. What else do you need to know?

Seriously, the gift Tom brings to our conversations is a wry irony, pungent without being cynical. His bullshit detector is finely tuned, and his sense of humor is honed to a razor’s edge.

I’ll be adding another writer next week, as well as cleaning house, something I haven’t done for a while. I have mail from a bunch of folks who want to write with us, and I’m thinking I want to come up with a new way of dealing with that. I’ll announce the new policy when I figure out what it is.

Meanwhile: Welcome to BloodhoundBlog, Tom. I’m sorry that I didn’t get to this sooner, but I know we will all be delighted to have you here.
