I’ve taken some flack from a good friend for giving that damn real estate thing even a single brain cycle.
I’m not going to lie - every now and then I still give it a quick thought.
When things don’t sit well in my mind, no matter how silly, I tend to give it some thought. Some call it a bad habit. I call it a positive trait 
Well, the other day I found myself spending a few minutes google image searching “chartreuse” and variations of key words - trying to find a photo of the guy.
Why?
Because I realized that I have seen (photos) every blogger that I read regularly (not in a “we trade webcam pictures over email” creepy type of thing, but in the less creepy “their picture is easily available on their blog” type of way).
And I like it. It adds to the experience and to the authenticity.
However, I have no clue what Chartreuse looks like. So I went looking. For a few minutes. And came up with nothing.
Except for a thought. Was there a connection between what sent me googling a series of odd key words and real estate glamour shots?

Anthony added these pithy words on Jun 01 06 at 9:22 pmFree Idea: Run a competition here a DT that invites people to submit their description or a celebrity who they think most like resembles chartreuse. The man himself or an ex-wife can judge it. The person who gets it right wins a free blog post here promoting their blog/product/store. Benefits to you, you hijack the man’s current uber popularity and turn some of your readers into commenters. (All future ideas charged at $77)

Dorquo "check the st added these pithy words on Jun 02 06 at 4:30 amJust make sure the you pronounce Tina’s name properly. It’s pronounced doo-it, dooo-it. Picture Ben Stiller… doo - it dooo- it.
Loren Feldman added these pithy words on Jun 02 06 at 6:35 amChar is working a “Wizardof Oz” angle. He wants no pictures, just mystique. I’ve heard that “he” is really a 75 year old Korean woman who lives in Kentucky. Just a rumor though.

Anthony added these pithy words on Jun 02 06 at 1:04 pmI think Chartreuse is Al Gore. Not just looks like him actually is the former VP.

Fraser added these pithy words on Jun 02 06 at 9:09 pmChartreuse being Al Gore would definitely explain Gore’s sudden resurgence. Interesting discussion to come from this post. I wanted at least someone to take my bait!
