According to my new-fangled blogger profile, I have written 278,978 words over 1,855 posts. My outbound links number 3,583. Can anybody top me? Step up to the plate and show me what you got!

What? This next statistic is a total crock of shit! They are saying that I average 13 posts per week. More like per day, suckers! Actually, I think that number is being automatically calculated based on when I joined blogger in September of 2001. I had a brief stint with a blog on a previous incarnation of this site, back when my ideas were more scattered and I didn’t really know what I was looking for. Then I started again last June with gusto, and have been going strong ever since. Actually, my blogiversary is almost upon us. I hope you are all hard at work shopping for something nice to give me at the huge party I am throwing…
