one of those posts which could (reasonably) be interpreted as "blowing my own trumpet", look you see. but it really isn't, and even if it was, i am quite aware that its not all that a big of a trumpet to be blowing, to be sure.
every now and then the stats for this blog throw up some interesting points. questions, perhaps, rather than answers about who exactly reads all of this what i do, or done.
here, for example, is a "live" shot at from where it is that people reading my stuff are coming from.
yes, indeed, it is the "unknown region" one which fascinates me the most. i am not clever enough at computers and that to understand the above at anything beyond face value. but still, this "unknown region" one fascinates me.
with many seeing all things on the internet as devious, maybe them unknown region readers are just ones that "cloak" or "hide" their location. as i have said before, though, my understanding is that (quite like the movies) when someone does that, it reflects a different place in the world, rather than just plain "unknown".
my best guess is that it is sailors, who are out at sea, that are reading it. if we are honest about it, a good deal of the content here would appeal to sailors, whether it is rough fags that i have smoked and suggested that they are the ones what salty sea dogs would prefer or the adventures of Spiros.
would i like a life on the seas? there are many appealing factors to this. i would not be overtly keen on the idea of getting bummed off of a rough, brutal, salty sea dog, but i suppose such things are part and parcel of the unwritten ways of life on the waves. also, i think things are a bit stricter on boats these days, and after one or two incidents in particular i am almost certain that they have probably banned smoking on commercial vessels, oil tankers in particular.
just some of the search terms what people have used to find this blog, and in turn search terms that google, or similar, lesser used search engines, have opted to see me as an authoritative source of information on. the "walking with lovebeads" one is probably a complete misunderstanding of certain toothpaste related posts i have done, and the mind boggles on the "barbra s...." one.
the space shuttle search term is an interesting one. whilst i am no expert on the subject, for i never read what i write (hence does not every now and then appearing as doe snot), i do not recall making too many mentions of space shuttles here, ever. either i must have, or something i wrote sounded like it was all to do with that gone but not forgotten means of smart space travel.
so, where is this "unknown region" that i attract readers from? oil rigs is a possibility, but one i doubt. they do tend to be stagnant in the seas and so i would assume that anyone on a rig reading this (hello!) would register as being in the country to which the seas ostensibly belong.
on a similar note, it has occurred to me that the unknown region readers might be beneath the sea, in a submarine, or well above it, in a plane. what would be quite class is if astronauts in space were reading this, but i am not sure that the reach of google (or whoever) to produce these stats reaches all that far into the galaxy just yet.
for a look at the last four weeks, we can see that Unknown Region has attracted more readers than Ireland, which makes sense, for it has been a while that i have mentioned Bono or similar in this post. yes, there is much more to Ireland than Bono, but as far as i am aware he's the only Irish person i mention from time to time.
if you were to ask me why so many people from Italy, or France for that matter, have clicked on my blog, my answer would be that i do not have a f*****g clue, but all are welcome. presumably our friends in the United States and Russia are dropping by to learn of the English way of doing things, and your guess would be as good as mine (if not better) on the rest.
well, anyway. it has been a long day, and there is only so much i can write about what has been read. similar is probably true for you in terms of how much of it you can read.
be excellent to each other!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
