Blog: October 2004 Archives

I usually don't comment on additions to the blogroll. triplux warrants a comment though.

What caught my eye about this blog was his project, 101 Things To Do in 1001 days. While lots of blogs have to do lists of one thing or another, this list distinguishes itself by having some pretty large tasks combined with a deadline.

For example:

That is a ton of movies!

Some of his tasks are much easier, like buying a new cell phone.

I'll be interested to watch his progress.

It inspired me to add some categories to my blog.

I try and pay some attention to my referrer logs as well as the movable type activity logs in order to figure out why people are visiting my humble web site. For the last several months I noticed that recently a lot of people are looking for "Terrible" Terry Tate, office linebacker. You may remember this gag from Reebok commercials from the Super Bowl a few years ago. It looks like the videos have been removed from the Reebok web site. I would like to point people to the videos but, I have no idea how to contact anyone at Reebok, nor can I determine where the videos might be.

It's a real shame that people really want to see advertisements and the company doing the advertising is unwilling to show them to people.

Reebok, if you are reading please bring Terry back and tell the fans where they can find the videos.

Occasionally a blog I really enjoy goes on an extended hiatus. It's a treat when they come back and they are just as good as they used to be.

Welcome back Critical Section, it's great to see your posts. As usual, there is a lot of links to chew on.

Can't wait for The Religious Policeman to start posting again, although I can understand that he might have to wait for regime change.

The blog ranking site blogstreet ranks this blog 65417 of 141307 blogs. I have watched my ranking for some time and my ranking hasn't really changed much. I think I have a pretty nice little site with interesting content. Why do I rank so low?

I finally turned off comments on old posts. The comment spam just got too bad. I have more sympathy for drug dealers than I do spam senders. That's the question I want Bush and Kerry to answer at their next debate. When are they going to start sending the spammers to Iraq.
