You Feel Lucky Today, Punk? Well? Do Ya?

Hey, there!

Not to whip this out at the last second or anything (and no, I don’t ‘say that to all the girls’, ya numbnuts), but this little blog here is rapidly approaching a milestone. With just 15 or so more hits, it’ll pass over the 50,000 mark. Woo!

And, to show my appreciation (same as I did with the 10,000th and 20,000th visitors — just ask Sabrina, who owns both titles; what are the odds?), I’d like to buy the 50,000th audience member a trinket or bauble from their wish list. Just to say thanks.

So, basically, if you see this post before about… oh, I dunno, maybe 8-9pm on Thursday, then drop me a comment. If I can match your message up to your email address — and, yes, if you’ve got a site with a wish list, or we can negotiate some sort of arrangement — then you’ll soon be receiving a big fat package, with lots of love from me.

(And yes, as a matter of fact, I do use the ‘big fat package with lots of love’ on all the girls. So nyah!)

Anyway, there you have it. Thanks to all of you who’ve dropped in to say hi, and best of luck to anyone looking for free swag on a Thursday. And rock on, 50k! Woot!

8-9pm whose time? My time? Your time? I’m confused?

Well, anyway. Congrats on the mucho number. Keep it (yep, whatever you want) up!

Man, I need a better stat counter. While I’m up to 133,219 “successful requests”, I can almost guarantee that 125,000 of those (give or take 8,219) are me tweaking something and making sure it worked. That or my brother’s pet chimp going wild on the refresh button.

Though I *did* just recently cross the 6,000 “failed requests” mark, which means I’m batting roughly .956, which ain’t too shabby.

BTW, my wish list is on the right, just wait until I can get the HDTV and the “Magic Fingers Inflat-A-Date” up there.

And congrats!
