A description of my blog. http://www.my-site.com 9093370547022353728 Thursday Shout-out 2008/05/#9093370547022353728 2008-05-22

I haven't done one of these for a while, but I figured it was time, considering all the people linking to me and leaving supportive comments lately. Yeah, there were some haters too, but I don't take comments too seriously when the commenter can't spell three words in a row correctly, and the best insult they can come up with is "your an asshole" [sic]. I'm tempted to set up a PayPal donation fund for my ditch digger, so that all of these commenters who are so concerned about the welfare of the kid I'm exploiting can donate to his college (or iPod) fund. I'm guessing that if I required a $1.00 donation for every time somebody calls me an asshole, they would take their lofty principles elsewhere.

But the real point of this post is to thank all of you who have been so supportive of me and this blog. It's pretty cool to know that y'all have my back.

So thanks first of all to Glacial Spain and everybody who Stumbled/Dugg/Reddited/whatever my post. In case you don't know what any of these things are, they are basically sites where you can recommend and review blog posts and websites. That's why I have those Stumble It! and Digg It! links at the bottom of every post. If you enjoy a post, you can use those links to recommend the post to other readers.

Thanks to Charlie Sykes from WTMJ in Milwaukee, who linked to me from his blog, Ernie's House of Whoop Ass (Warning: NSFW), and everybody else who has linked to me recently.

Thanks to all the commenters who left supportive, insightful and/or humorous comments. My favorite is this one from newcomer the inscrutable chicken:
$8 an hour x 10 hours a day x 250 days a year (5 days a week and a couple of weeks holiday) = $20,000 a year.

This puts you in the top 11.2% richest people in the world (source: http://www.globalrichlist.com/)

Who needs college?
And since Joel from Crummy Church Signs gave me a shout-out the last time he had a big traffic surge, I figured I should return the favor. Seriously, visit his site. It's hilarious. One visit and you'll be hooked.

Finally, thanks to everybody who keeps clicking on this link. I'm back in the top five! Click! Click like the wind!

See you back here tomorrow for the caption contest results.
