Assorted Afflatuses
Un Indice!
As I have a startling lack of homework, I figured that I could afford to spend more time attempting to discern the context in which a certain LiveJournal user set a spate of referrals upon my website. When last I checked, nearly 20 different LiveJournals had linked to my website - if only via their "Friends" pages - with the result that nearly 90 new unique visitors have paid a visit. While I cannot honestly say this influx of hits altered my visitor count in any largely perceptible way, this entirely new pocket of visitors has aroused my curiosity.
At any rate, I did some additional digging and I stumbled upon the LiveJournal of one fidget62 - whose real name I refrain from using solely because I find most people's chosen screen-names quite amusing. Her blog that provided at least some context for this new pocket of readers. It makes me quite happy to think that, based upon the rather faint details provided by Ms. fidget62's LiveJournal, someone happened to serendipitously stumble upon my blog and found it amusing enough to write about. In a sense, progress.
Still, I would like to see the original context in which some mysterious author recommended my humble blog to a new pocket of people, or - perhaps more importantly - discover how this mysterious person found my blog in the first place.
(On an almost entirely unrelated note, I must express my great esteem that fidget62 decided to use the 24-hour clock in one of her posts. It reminds me of my own insistence that the day of the week must go before the month: 1 December 2006 instead of December 1, 2006.)
Well of course the day of the month comes before the month itself. As my cell phone tells me, it is Thu 14 Dec 2006. Because it is obviously Thursday, the 14th day of December in 2006. I have no idea what type of twisted logic would convince anyone to write it otherwise.
