It’s Sunday morning, and the random iTunes shuffle thought it would be funny to play some hard rock this early on a Sunday. Ok, ok, I get it, I’m awake now! Only recently have I been exposed to the band Tool (the song is entitled The Pot), specifically, thanks to a Christmas gift from my brother Kyle (yes, that’s actually correct, for those of my readers who didn’t know I had a brother, let alone one with the same name – I’m glad I’ve finally graduated from being known under the auspices of “little Kyle” to that of “California Kyle”, which has a much better ring to it). I’ve never been much of one for modern hard rock, but elements of it are certainly quite interesting, especially the fact that the band rarely binds themselves to a simple 4/4 or even 3/4 time signature, venturing far off the beaten path into the world of 5/4, 7/4, 11/4, and dare-I-say-it, even 1/4!
Also, I just realized that this is officially the 100th posting of this blog! In reality, this is about the 3rd blog I’ve had (since two false starts last summer) and I’m super excited that it’s been something I’ve been able to consistently keep up with for 100 posts already! Some highlights from the last 100 posts:
Total Visits: 1,928
Best Day: Friday, March 21, 2008 (132 visits)
Best Month: March 2008 (451 visits)
Worst Month: February 2008 (32 visits) – “What happened people???” I only had 4 posts in March and 8 in February?!?!
The Most Visited Post: Entitled “Healthy Competition“, I wrote this December 13th posting following the revelation of steroid abuse by a number of major league baseball players. I guess I thought that what was happening was both simultaneously sad and ironic.
The Most Followed Link: I try to include relevant (if not also interesting) links to some of the events that I refer to in my blog. The link that you followed most often was the Select-a-Candidate link from my post Election Day (back last November) which points to a page that will help you select a candidate based upon issues. Hmmm….for some reason, I don’t think this link may be that relevant much longer.
The Most Commented-On Post: This is the recently posted “A Whirlwind Weekend“, in which a whopping 5 of you apparently liked my new car. Seriously, you guys are a bunch of lurkers. Comment more…
Finally, in celebration of my 100th post, here is a list of 100 bests across the internet! Enjoy!
