still haven't found what anyone is looking for

I am losing my patience with Blog.

Brian Cooperman. He may be the only person reading this. He is the only person who assiduously posts comments -- who seems to be aware of the factoids and lies that I spew semi semi semi weekly from this e-soapbox (although I think Josh made a passing comment about how I blogged about Inland Empire -- which I'm sure was disparaging but the fact that he knew that I did I counted as a personal victory). Only Brian Cooperman: the cartographer, the foil fencer, the anti-Rachel Ray -- one reader in the lonely cyber-universe. Maybe if I had more lists and count-downs I could maintain an audience? Maybe if I were funnier? More terse? (terser? and if either: what's more terse? See!) Maybe if I broke my own rule and blogged about LOST (my one and only rule)?

Maybe I should just accept it. When I do see "one new comment" after a post usually they are thus:

Hi, I was looking over your blog and didn't quite find what I was looking for. I'm looking for different ways to earn money... I did find this though...a place where you can make some nice extra cash secret shopping. I made over $900 last month having fun!make extra money now

Even the ad-posting search engine that some weasal marketing firm has fired in my direction claims that they "didn't quite find what [they] were looking for"? That's pretty bad. Also, why do these ads always seem to be from underage hot girls? Or is that just because most of them are for porn?

These are the questions of the universe, and perhaps 2007 will hold some of the answers. I'll most likely blog before then, though, so hold out for more wisdom. I know you're reading. I hope you're reading. Please read.

I think those comments from underage girls are actual underage diner employees trying to get your attention. Do not discard them. Also, the amount of comments is unimportant; it's the amount of visitors that counts. Just ask my Flickr account (flickr.com/photos/kesnerster for all of you reading matts comments).

I did a Google search for "fake owl," and your blog came up.
Actually, that's a lie. I think I saw you on Adam's blog, and that's how I got here. Just wanted to say hi.


I have a crappy food blog, and I'd link you to my real one if I thought you'd be able to access it. But I'm kind of a LiveJournal snob. So check out CFB if you want at inthemanger.blogspot.com. It's sort of new and definitely not that great.

kbye.
