Undeserved Popularity is Kewl, and Andrew Siciliano Can Be Funny
Until other people realize that they have to select a new counter display to get their Blogpatrol working, I am up in the Top 100 list of Blogpatrol users. At the moment, the first 20 entries in the Top 100 display looks like this:

This blog at number 13? Trust me, that will change soon.

However, if you happen to arrive here because of my (brief) appearance in Blogpatrol's Top 100 list, I should explain that this blog uses the aesthetic approach favored by the Beatles in the White Album (my favorite Beatles album), and also used by Depeche Mode in "Pleasure Little Treasure" (my least favorite Depeche Mode song). In other words, everything and the kitchen sink goes into this blog, which veers from conversations about Golden Earring to the Beastie Boys to Xuxa to Pat O'Brien in the blink of an eye, then suddenly displays a Disney's California Adventure picture right after that. Add blogging and IT discussions, and it becomes clear that this blog has no unified theme or purpose whatsoever. Except, of course, for keeping those Krystal Fernandez hits coming.

Which reminds me - this morning, Andrew Siciliano got into a great tongue-in-cheek rant about a golf tournament in Jacksonville, asking how they could possibly schedule a tournament in Jacksonville when the city has limited hotel facilities. (Perceptive minds will remember that such rants were voiced legitimately a couple of months ago, in reference to "The Big Game".

Random words: Savi Ranch vs. The Mighty Santa Ana. (Later.)
