Addressing This Quiz

Your Address Says You're Friendly

Right now, you are enjoying your life as it is. You wouldn't change a thing. You feel happy for what you have. There's a lot to be thankful for. At your best, you are welcoming and outgoing. You have a lot to give. At your worst, you are a bit too giving toward other people. You need to think of yourself first sometimes.

What Does Your Address Say About You?

49 and Holding

For over a week now this has been the message on my US Flag Counter:



That's pretty neat, considering it's only been 3 weeks since I put in the counter.

BUT, when navigating to the Flag Map, I noticed two states haven't visited this blog, both North and South Dakota:



Looking through the list, I see that it counts the District of Columbia as a state, so there's the problem.

OTOH, I better not hold my breath waiting waiting for visits from President Obama's "57 States".

On a related note, I noticed that there's now a Visitor Log which details more on each visitor, whether they're a new visitor or a new visitor from a new state (the same with the country flag counter) and what sort of operating system they're using as well as what browser.

The country count is now up to 75, and that's in less than two months of the counter being on this blog.

Cool. I suppose it's nothing really to brag about; I know of some blogs that probably get that many visitors a day as I've had total, but I think it's still neat.

Full-Time Job

One day a man spotted a lamp by the roadside.

He picked it up, rubbed it vigorously and a genie appeared.

"I'll grant you your fondest wish," the genie said.

The man thought for a moment, then said,

"I want a spectacular job - a job that no man has ever succeeded at or has ever attempted to do."

"Done!!" said the Genie,

"You're a housewife."
