My cat has finally talked me into letting him have his own account. As long as he gets on the computer late at night when I’m sleeping it’s fine with me.
I wondered about creating an account for him and started a discussion in the forums to sound out other peoples’ feelings. Are there any advantages to having a second account? What are the disadvantages? The reaction was mixed but, on the whole, no one was against the idea.
Squidoo makes it very simple to have more than one account but that’s nothing – Squidoo makes it very easy to throw up a dozen spammy lenses in an hour as well. This doesn’t mean that we should!
In any case, I created his lensmaster account – Vladi, a shortened name for a cat with a shortened tail but his full name, Vladimir, had gone.
I transferred to him the two lenses that he had co-authored with me and now my lens count is down to 140. So I’m behind in my schedule which I had to rearrange anyway to fit in with my Angel duties. But no matter, the kids are back at school, and I have a couple more hours in the day again.
Here’s his latest creation Bagheera, my Hero
Now, better make another category in here for his work 
Susan Deppner has been warm, friendly and very encouraging to me. Squidoo knows her as Susan52, Giant Squid, and I’m pacing myself to keep up with her. I will hit the 100 lens line with her at the end of December.
When I read Susan’s lensography, it’s quite clear that she is very much like me in outlook and tastes, except for those two great divides of humanity. Football and religion. Ah, football. It’s all black and white, there is no middle ground.
In any case I’m most grateful to Susan for her friendliness.
