Milestone?


Thanks to you guys, I'm about 140 clicks away from 50K hits.


I set up site meter so it doesn't register my own clicks and only counts one unique visit every 6 hours, so it's taken me a while to get here.

I'd say about 30% of my hits are people looking for recipes (who almost never end up staying for more than 3 seconds) 10% are Perverts that stumble upon my colorful euphemisms, 10% are people looking for hammers, and the other 50% are nice folks like yourselves. The other 10% failed math.

When I find out who Mr or Mrs 50,000 is, they get to choose one of the following:

1. They can ask me to write a post about pretty much anything of their choosing.
2. I'll answer interview questions (A first for hammer!)

3. Get a special side bar mention with a link to their blog or favorite charity.


I know it's not much of a prize, but I'm a cheap bastard saving up the good one for 100K.

Bowling on "Cosmic Night" would be a good prize, or a get-together of we regulars...whatever is easier!

Veritas et Fidelis Semper

P.S. Or a new stuffed toy for Marvin!

Not much of a prize? Those are all fantastic prizes. I must say, though, that the number one is the worst, but only because you say the person can "ask" you to write whatever. I can do that already. The prize, I assume, is that you will actually write about it (or consider such action).

Yeah, I'm the sort of jerk who takes things too literally. :-D

You're not offering a gold-plated hammer, then?

I'm thinking that if I ever reach that particular milestone I will offer up some of my points that I infrequently hand out. I can't even keep of them anymore.

Guess I won't win the prize - you'll surely get your hits before I can get back. Ahhhh.

Congrats to you and the winner!

BTW...I gave you a plug over at the Silverbacks, so maybe that click will come very soon!

Fortunately for you, I don't charge for my unsolicited advice, but on the whole, checking the 'search' of visitors is very bad for the mental health.
Cheers
