I can concentrate. This is my gift from the gods.
The human mind is a scattered thing, flitting off at any instant in any random direction. I have the peculiar talent of being able to think about one thing exclusively — literally excluding the whole of the rest of the universe. Because of this, I can write fast, write software fast, think about things down to the last whirling atom. But the corollary is that I am exceptionally gifted at overlooking things. Cathy gets stuck with everything that I don’t want to think about.
I tend to think about things completely, to the point of tedium or even outright aggravation to other people, but I never think about something until I do. My oversights are unspeckled by anything resembling foresight.
All that’s by way of introduction to yet another “duh!” introduction:
Cheryl Johnson lives in a “how-to” world. Never satisfied with the off-the-shelf solution, she fine-tunes her tools — then teaches the “how-to” of what she’s done. This real estate broker and investor calls Los Angeles her home.
CJ has been a boon to BloodhoundBlog since we were brand new. She’s been working with me by email on a project of mine. She has actually built the holiest of holies, a viable community weblog. Add to that her tutorial talents and she’s a natural fit for BloodhoundBlog.
So why didn’t I think to invite her to join us earlier? Duh…

Sometimes (at least for me) “Duh moments” produce some of the best stuff.

Cheryl, for the longest time, I thought that http://www.nelalive.net/cheryl_johnson.jpg was your real headshot.
Boy, I sure hope I never find out that Todd Carpenter doesn’t REALLY wear a sombrero. That would crush me.

Thank you for the welcome. Dan, often when I look in the mirror, I feel oddly puzzled that http://www.nelalive.net/cheryl_johnson.jpg doesn’t peer back at me.

I’ve been visiting CJ’s Da BlogMother site for a while and have always meant to experiment with some of her examples…when I get smarter. She definitely rocks the graphic Blogiverse. Great choice.
