YesButNoButYes would like to acknowledge our Ten Millionth Visitor! (cue confetti) This is the kind of occasion where a normal blog would announce who this visitor is and award them a page of publicity and a t-shirt. Yes, we would like to, But No, nobody noticed this milestone, or who that ten millionth visitor may have been a couple of days ago, as this is August and most of the staff are vacationing on the French Riviera. But Yes, we would like to acknowledge the milestone, if nothing else.

Where in the world did ten million hits come from? Of course, it’s not really ten million people. It’s either a million people who have visited ten times, or ten people who have each visited a million times. And considering how traffic has dropped off since the comments went out, I’m inclined to think that it’s the latter. Five of those ten only came around to leave a snarky remark about whatever was up. A big thanks to the other five, who are apparently related to the authors here, but will probably quit coming around when they realize they weren’t invited to Saint Tropez.

And this is also the occasion where a normal blog would get lots and lots of comments, snarky or not, congratulating us. But that ain’t gonna happen, because someone somewhere got pissed off at something written here (hard to narrow that down) and put a voodoo mojo on our software. A team of very expensive computer scientists are working on the problem -or they were, until the check bounced. Since then, it’s just been Scaramouch down in the basement by himself, day after day, trying to figure out what’s wrong, or cast some counter-spell to appease the html gods.

All this goes to show that this ain’t no normal blog. You can send notes of congratulations to the webmaster address, but he won’t see them til he comes up for air. But here’s a secret -he’s working on more than just comments. When he gets the wires untangled and the squirrels back on their wheels, it will be a whole new improved experience in jiggling boobs and fart jokes! Thanks to those who are sticking with us through the renovation, and all those who made this milestone possible.
