Friday, March 13, 2009 -- The Great Old Wizard Tickety Boo -- A Book by Scott Morton

"Why this blog post today? Well, interestingly enough, the other day I was working on my Squidoo lenses but was having difficulty with getting my pages to load. So, it gave me the opportunity to drop into the friendly SquidU Forum to chat with fellow lensmasters. When I asked if Squidoo was Down, another lensmaster mentioned reading that the servers were working 'tickety boo.'

Tickety boo? I've been wondering for a LONG time what tickety boo means and where that expression originated. So, this morning I decided to investigate this on Google. Wow!"

Above is the introduction to my JaguarJulie Blog On and On blog post which led to my introduction to the Wizard Scott Morton!  We chatted a bit through emails, and one thing led to another.  I communicated to Wizard Scott Morton the power of Squidoo; he joined Squidoo on March 22, 2009.  As of this writing, Scott has authored 14 remarkable Squidoo lenses!  Welcome Wizard Scott Morton!  ;)

"Hi, I'm the Author and Illustrator of the popular Childrens book 'The Great Old Wizard Tickety Boo.'

This is the first of 4 books which I intend to bring to the global market place.

If you live outside the United Kingdom and would like a copy of my book please e-mail me at morton.s@talktalk.net and I will let you know how much the postage and packing will be and how to purchase."

Thursday, September 3, 2009 -- Everything is coming up just Tickety Boo!

"Ah yes, to us Squidoo lensmasters we probably FIRST got to know the expression about the Squidoo servers running tickety boo. But, for the majority of us lensmasters, do you really KNOW about that expression? It has been quite a while ago that I researched tickety boo through a Google search and to my delight, discovered 'The Old Wizard Tickety Boo,' a book by Scott Morton. I was so enthralled by this magical book, that I blogged about it in JaguarJulie Blog On in March 2009. Then, after my blog post, I 'met' the author online and was delighted to see that he joined me on Squidoo on March 22, 2009.

The internet can be a magical place, bringing people together worldwide. Scott opted to join The Journal of the Traveling Squid, the goodwill project connecting lensmasters and giant squids worldwide. On August 26, 2009, Scott and the Wizard Tickety Boo made their appearance in the traveling squid."

Above is the introduction to my Topicability blog post about the Wizard Scott Morton.  Isn't the internet a wondrous place? 

The internet provides a social platform that enables so many positive interactions.  And, it is thanks to the power of Squidoo too for bringing the Wizard Scott Morton into our lives ... and ultimately leading to the story of the Wizard of Zazzle! 

Say hello to the Wizard of Zazzle!
