I’ve been reviewing and tinkering with a few stats and analysis programs to see when or if people are actually reading this blog and I found out… you are!

That’s pretty cool.

Here are some interesting factoids:

22 people subscribe to this site via Facebook’s Network Blog tool thing.

15 people subscribe to receive e-mail notifications about new postings.

Despite Russian spam and ads for Canadian drugs… I have no readers in either country.

My domestic readership looks like this (based on traffic this week):

41% from Maryland (Rockville, Princess Anne)

30% from Virginia (Bristow, Arlington, Herndon, Winchester, Charlottesville)

6% from Iowa (West Des Moines)

6% from Utah (Salt Lake City – ISP: The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints… that was a surprise)

5% from North Carolina (Wendell, Winston Salem)

3% from Washington (Seattle)

3% from California (Mountain View)

2% from Arizona (Tucson)

2% from South Carolina (Beaufort)

2% from Oregon (Portland)

Thank each and every one of you for your readership.  I do this because I enjoy doing so.  One day it would be nice if I could ever make a career out of it, but right now it’s just for fun.  As always, if you enjoy reading the nonsense I make up here, please tell your friends about the site.  If you hate it, please tell your enemies.  If you’ve got a web site and feel so moved, a link would be awesome.  If you want me to link to your site in return, I can do that. 

But most of all, keep reading. 

Also, next week… I’m awarding a prize to a dedicated reader.  Is it you?  Maybe.  Odds are probably not… but maybe.    What is the prize?  A free car? A year’s supply of Valvoline? A coupon for buy-one-get-one-free dental fillings? An old biscuit?  All of the above in a wicker basket wrapped in foil?  Who knows?
