Anniversary
Today is the third anniversary of this blog. I posted my first message on a Saturday back in 2003. I was bitching about noise, and continue to do so. This weekend sounded like a war zone with all the idiots setting off fireworks all hours of the night.
Since that first post, I've put about 414 posts, in 1.3 MB in html files, along with 60-odd images and a bunch of links. For the most part, I've blogged here for my own relief. It's easier than griping to people and it does get stuff off my chest. Actually, I've found that there have been some people who really read this stuff and even a very elite few who've commented on articles. Thanks for the comments. It's always a thrill to see that there's actually someone who decided that they like/hated your text enough to take the time to comment about it.
For the most part, this blog has been shrouded in anonyminity. I did get a link in MSN's Slate which resulted in a very brief flurry of hits. There's been a couple of group discussions that ended up linking to my blog, but those links don't usually last.
Thanks to those who do read this and for those who haven't that's cool too.
