Surprisingly, not many are coming, presumably, from porno pages. Which probably explains why I have such sparse traffic. Well, that and the fact that I don't try real hard to bring others in to this page and I don't work hard at maintaining those relationships. Especially now.
One day while doing a less regular search of Technorati.com - where you get to type in the name of your blog and find out who's linked to it, etc., - I was delighted to find out that someone had me linked as a must-read, even though I didn't know her. A friend of a friend of Timi's said she's been a longtime visitor, no-time caller. Since none of the members of the 5-fresh crew's had time recently, she seems like a good sister with some lengthy (a compliment in my view) commentaries on what it means to be a Christ-follower in this generation. And she listed me first on her list (of course because I'm the best of the best. Right??). And she stone-quoted Arrested Development. So, if you ever thought what Mr. Left Cheek might sound like if he were a she and a black she at that, check out Spirit's Footprints in the Sand.
But I was wondering why all this rash of people had come to visit me from the Youth Specialties Blog Ring page. So, a few days later I'm checking technorati again and I spot a link in their page. duh! But check this, I made the list for, quote, "Jason gets the Most Random Post of the Week, I think!," unquote. Turns out that the conversation between Timi and my parents that exists only in my bloggery was fairly entertaining. Although apparently not enough that people would leave comments, but still!
Let me also say, I hate the way this blog looks in IE.
Oh, and Christine-Canada is still on some sort of self-imposed Sabbatical, but she left a riff that could take several enjoyable weeks to read. Bon apetit, mes amis!
I could've sworn I had left a comment about the Random Post Of The Week. Oh well, sorry!
ReplyDeletewell, you know what happens when a bunch of youth workers get together...
ReplyDeletethat's right, nothing.
thanks for leaving one this time derek.
you're such a gabi.
ReplyDeleteand did you just say 'dude?'
ReplyDeleteok. i've used up what little i know trying to find out what happened. to the best of my knowledge, it's gone.
ReplyDeletebut tell me if you need me to show any muscle (i'll need a couple weeks to develop it. i'm sorry. that's a joke.)
i do hope you're all right. some people are just a**holes. and i'm saying that as a minister, as a man, and as a teacher.
always, always, God is good. God is good.
That's why I surround myself with kittens. That way, when one of the furballs croak, I'll get called to the carpet with the quizickness...
ReplyDeleteAnd I only have 5 cats...
So dead cat-casses could get really old really quickly.
Couldn't it be, that each time a mosquito dies?? Then single frustrated men with low self esteem all across the world would be heroes. And West-Nile obliterators.
they're not lab birds. they don't smell unhealthy amounts of toxic gas and pass away to warn you of impending doom.
ReplyDeletethey die 'cuz we men are selfish.
