My blog post for today isn't what I had planned. Why, is a lesson in technological miscommunication with which I am intimately familiar yet seriously deficient. The reason? JoJo don't know techno! Actually, my technological skills, or serious lack thereof, are of lesser impact on my techno troubles today than is my nemesis, Methuselah's, degrading electronic innerds! If Ghandi were alive today, he'd have resorted to personal computer violence about a month ago! Guantanamo's got NOTHING on this sort of Techno Torture! So at 4am, after all of 4hrs sleep, I'm thinking I'll work on my blogpost, newsletter, answer a few emails and get a jump start on my day when, what to my unsurprised eyes should appear, but a...
After taking quite the many days to get my new blog just exactly the way I wanted it, I was so proud of myself that I posted my naive exuberance here on Communication FUNdamentals to many congratulations and At-A-Gals! Immediately following, I posted another few blog posts that somehow, without provocation, caused most of my blog to enter the Witness Protection Program becoming invisible to the naked eye when viewed by those with Internet Explorer (IE).

For three days I pestered my web designer and several of my friends from my Monday Master Mind group. This little techie trouble maker was finally able to converse with her blog in his own language and get him to do what she wanted. REALLY! Go figure! :D
What do you all think of the new blog? How'd I do?

is working on her blog. Alert the media and keep your arms and legs inside the blog at all times! I was able to put Word Press on my site and my web designer linked it from Art of Eloquence.com's left navigation bar. Now all I have to do is make this page look a bit more like the rest of the site. The bad news: unfortunately, in my mind, HTML means Hopeless Technological Misfit Looney. The good news? I can download a template! The really bad news? The directions to do so are written in TECHIE TALK! The really good news? I can ask my web designer! The MOST HORRIFIC NEWS: she tells me to download the thingamagigiie to...
