2008 Stat-a-licious

Since everyone else whose blogs I read seems to be doing this, so will I! Who says I'm not at team player!

I started this blog in May of 2008. Here are the year-to date statifications:

I didn't have any really strange search terms like Mandy's "wet pants" or Fred's "bad singer fred mckinnon o holy night”, but I did chuckle at "dabble piano." If I ever start a band, that will be the name - Dabblepiano!

I had visitors from 66 countries. The top five:

1. United States
2. United Kingdom
3. Australia
4. Canada
5. Hong Kong

I also managed to hit all fifty states and the District of Columbia. Top five:

1. Connecticut (duh)
2. California
3. Texas
4. Georgia
5. Florida

Clearly, controversial topics rule the day. I need to do more album reviews - very popular. And I need to figure out why Vermont and Wyoming don't dig me!

So thank you all for a great first year of blogging! I look forward to an amazing 2009.
