Mystery Man: What’s He Going to Do?

June 14, 2007 by Liz Leave a Comment

WHO?

Who is this man from Iowa and why is he smiling?

Who is this man? Why is his picture here?

He doesn’t write or send flowers.
He didn’t come to SOBCon.
Yet, this man and I have a plan for Successful Blog.
You’ll get a kick out of it.

    Oooh Oooh a guessing game!

    OK. I’m guessing since the picture name starts with mm… that the MM is the man’s initials.

    That would mean, obviously that it’s Manfred Mann and he’s obviously had quite a bit of work done (older picture here) but I can see the resemblance and he’s going to stage a comeback tour on a motorcycle along with you for the rest of your trip!

    I can’t wait!!!!

    Was I even close?

    Hi Rich!
    Wow! Cool! I had no idea that’s what we were going to do!!! Sometimes I’m involved in the most incredible things without even knowing. Golly!

    A little close. 🙂

    Hi Liz,
    Wow this reminds me of the “Have You Seen This Spot” Mystery contest in my local paper. Your mystery man does look familiar so that means he is one of those people who always looks like somebody.

    You and he are going to do an experiment with Successful Blogger and MM is the designer.??:) And I bet when you two are done, he will be sending flowers.

    Well he certainly has a good smile!
    I think he is going to be helping me in my quest to achieve great things as a technically challenged blonde, from North Yorkshire UK!

    Hi Carma!
    I can’t wait to point out your comment to him.

    No he is not the designer. He has been on television in the midwest. He’s quite an entertaining guy and he’s a blogger. 🙂

    Hi April!
    His mystery man has been known to give people an occasional, motivational foot in the posterior region of the trousers when they have requested his help. 🙂

    I think you’ll be talking to him. 🙂

    Hi Suray!
    Yes, both he and my husband are handsome. But they are not the same person. My husband is fair-haired and sends me flowers. 🙂

    Hi Denise!
    Actually, I’ve heard he’s great at helping folks achieve things. Idon’t that he’s taken on the quest of technically challenged blondes yet, but he handles verbal volleyball with clueless blondes like me quite well. 🙂

    Ohh, ooh. I know! I know! You’re going to host a new Reality Blogging show called: “What Not To Blog!”

    Great idea, Liz!! 🙂

    Hey Jesse!
    That’a a great idea! He’d be good at it too. He’s a bit of a dreamer. 🙂

    Ohhhhhhh. This is fun.

    Hmmmmmmm. Okay, so what have we cleared up so far?

    We know that I’m not Manfred Mann. BUT I did live in England for a while and I do like R&B.

    I’m not a designer, but I do have an appreciation for it.

    We also have clarified that I’m not Liz’s husband and that he’s better at sending flowers. (Although I’m working on this!)

    And… that I can be somewhat motivational… and probably slightly annoying at times.

    Hmmmmmmm. What else might help?

    You should probably know that I love asking questions. I also love games. And I especially love games that ask questions.

    Do you?

    Oh… this IS fun!

    Ah Mystery Man,
    I’m so delighted that you’re studying up on sending flowers. Are you taking a university class, a correspondence course, or getting coaching?

    Nope. Not my name. But now that I think about it, kinda sounds like something I might like to do though.

    Mitch Matthews! What would he be doing HERE?!!

    June 15, 2007 at 12:50 PM

    Oh Liz…

    I wouldn’t know what exactly he would be doing at successful-blog.com…. but I do an inkling:

    Quote from blog.doyou.com:
    “… Fans of blog.doyouq.com have described it like this…

    “In a world that seems to be moving so fast… Q helps you to relax, laugh, listen and really connect with your friends…”

    “It’s fun… you can’t wait for your turn or to hear what your friends are going to say!”
    …”

    So my take would be that you two are going to collaborate in some way and create a blog platform that will have questions and answers from Q as well as successful-blog.com….

    … or you could be planning a marketing program? or he’s gonna be a writer here? or start a charity? or invite us to ask questions???

    Whatever it’s going to be, I’m definitely looking forward to it 🙂

    I’ll let Liz tell you about what’s coming… but I’ll just say that I’m looking forward to it!

    Can’t wait!
