HUMOR: Beyond Barrel Roll: 10 Hidden Google Tricks

CULTURE/SOCIETY: A Parental Story

This is me, NOT some reprinted piece. But if you've kept up on my "tweets" from my Twitter account, you've heard the main details. - OlderMusicGeek

My daughter couldn't find her glasses one morning. We looked high and low. Sometimes, she falls asleep with them on watching tv, so we shook out the blankets, lifted her mattress, and looked under the bed. No signs of her glasses anywhere. I won't disgust you, though, with what things we did find!

But while looking for the glasses a second time without her, I did find the chip bag she had been eating from - after bed time I might add! And it was left open - as always. So I reached down in annoyance to close it - and saw something in there!

Sure enough, it was her glasses!

When I asked my daughter how the glasses ended up in a chip bag, she said she must have knocked the glasses from the night stand to the chip bag on the floor. Which makes sense, since she always knocking glasses and other stuff - like glasses of water - off her night stand with her tossing and turning.


Later though, my daughter and I began to wonder if we had a gremlin in the house. For we found a sharpie in a water bottle and my spare car key showed up in my shoe. So either my daughter is stranger than I thought and our house is haunted!

HUMOR: Feeling Lucky?

CULTURE/SOCIETY: My Blog and How It is Visited

This is me, OlderMusicGeek, writing, not a reprinted article. :)

I use a site called sitemeter. It's pretty sweet. It let's me know how many visits and page views are at my site each week. I can even see where in the world the viewers are from.

Surprise, surprise, most are from the United States. Though I get a few popping in from other places, mostly I think through search engines like google. I've listed before some of the weird searches that made my site pop up.

Yeah, this site even shows what links brought people to my site. Here's the most common ones. Number 1 and 2 are a big surprise. - I'm sure they're the link I always put at the end of my letters.

1. http://oldermusicgeek.blogspot.com/ (69 hits)
2. http://www.oldermusicgeek.blogspot.com/ (9 hits)
3. CULTURE/SOCIETY, SCIENCE and POLITICS: My Results on a Morality Quiz (5 hits)
4. POLITICS: Letter to Politicians on a Judge Allowing Gay Marriage in Iowa (4 hits)
- 5th place is a four-way tie with 2 hits each
5. SCIENCE: The Quest to Design the Perfect Yawn

5. December 2005

As you can see, my site is a heavily visited spot on the internet!

But there is two times a year when it is visited a lot more than the other times! October and December!

During the past year, except for October and December, my site had between 46 and 96 visits during a month - and between 52 and 148 page views during a month.

But in October last year, it had 178 visits and 315 page views. And in December last year, it had 176 visits and 235 page views. -- Apparently, most people like Halloween better than Christmas - or at least my Halloween posts better than my Christmas posts. Oh well, I'll live!

I can't tell you how things are going this October, because my temporary change - for Halloween - to Beautiful Nightmare's Stupid Stuff has messed sitemeter up, and it list my hits as zero. :)

But it's cool with me that my site is visited more in October and December. I enjoy making the Halloween and Christmas blogs. Those are my two favorite holidays! So enjoy.

All my Halloween posts

All my Christmas posts

CULTURE/SOCIETY: Porno Email Poetry

I, OlderMusicGeek, have started a new genre of poetry.

I call it porno email poetry. All you have to do is take subject lines from porno emails you get, and put them together. Quite frankly, I think they give dadaism a run for their money.

Plus, I have fun just trying to make something sensible of each line.

And this will, undoubtedly, make my website pop up on some weird searches on the search engines. :)

HUMOR and CULTURE/SOCIETY: Weird Search Engines that Bring Up My Site
