Mucho thanks and manly back-slapping hugs to Pixy. With his efforts, all the Munuvians are now hosted on a new and much faster server. This means that Rocket Jones will now rocket*.

*Speed-wise that is. Expect the drivel to continue as before.

Taking a cue from the flea ethereal, here's a list of countries that have appeared on my visitor logs:

United States, Canada, Australia, United Kingdom, South Africa, Italy, Sweden, Japan, New Zealand, Netherlands, Germany, Estonia, Norway, Belgium, Spain, Finland, France, Switzerland, Hong Kong, Singapore, Ireland, Austria, Denmark, Romania, Poland, Isreal, Saudi Arabia, Taiwan, Greece, Malaysia, China, Brazil, Iceland, Bangladesh, Bulgaria, India, Philippines, Portugal, Argentina, Slovenia, Nigeria, and the Russian Federation.

Welcome all, and thanks for visiting. And I know not all of them are countries, but they have their own internet country code suffix. And that, as my dad would say, is good enough for the girls I go with.

Last evening I had the pleasure of meeting the ultra-fuschia Dawn of Caterwauling. I expect that now she'll comment that her suit was 'dusty rose' or some other girl color - they do that to make us guys look stupid - but it doesn't matter, it looked good.

We shared wonderful conversation over mexican food, and then she treated me to my first ever Starbucks. I'm such a peasant, I ordered a coffee.

Good times. I tell you, blogging is the best thing this ol' internet stalker ever got into.

1 It was definitely fuschia. And it was a pleasure to meet you, too, my friend!

2 I always order coffee at Starbucks.
The coffee is pretty good.

I find myself deleting a lot of half-finished comments on other people's blogs. Or considering a response, only to censor myself for being too nitpicky, ornery or trite. I still try to comment everywhere I visit at least once in a while, if nothing else to show that I've been there and reading.

Do you do that?

1 I know what you mean about half-finished comments. Many times I start to say something, but then

2 I comment if I have something to say but I'm hesitant about the "hi, love your blog" or "I linked to you" kind of comments. I guess I worry that people will think I'm just trying to be noticed, which of course is true sometimes.

3 I do it too, particularly if I lose track of what I was going to say in the middle of it. Which seems to be happening more often since my last birthday !

4 Yup. All the time. I start writing a comment and then try to think how the other person might see it and figure it might be better left unsaid.

On the other hand some bloggers (like me) would appreciate any comment - they can always send a few emails to sort out any misunderstanding from the comment.

5 Sometimes I think I write more in other blogs comments than I do in my own blog. And since I'm doing it in their comment form and not the text editor I use for writing posts, I'm doing it without spell check! Always very dangerous.

6 Yep. Constantly.
This is the comment to show you I'm still here and reading! ;-)

7 No, never, not at all...

Uh, which is to say, yes.

8 All the time. I probably wrote and cancelled five comments just last night. Usually it's because I tried to be either funny or profound and it just wasn't working. I'd rather say nothing than say something lame-ass embarrassing like this nipple shield I'm exposing.

Ooops.

9 Not often enough, and definately not often enough on your blog Ted.

11 Rarely, and that's usually because I have to calm down first. I do find myself editing the bejeepers out of some comments, tho.

12 I seem to do that a lot lately (except since I'm a new visitor here, this is comment #3 so far) -- it's as though you're in the middle of typing a comment and you're suddenly struck with an extreme case of commentphobia or shyness or something. It's strange -- why begin typing a comment only to end up deleting it?
