If I Had A Dollar...

...for every hit I had since I started MArooned, I would be a millionaire today.


Yes, at some point in the wee hours of the morning, MArooned rolled over one million hits. One. Million. Hits. That's a thousand thousand times that y'all have clicked here, and believe me, that's humbling. Hell, it's pretty humbling that a thousand of y'all check in to read my brain droppings. One. Million. It just floors me that I've made it this far. Oh sure, to the big dogs like Unc or Tam, one million hits just come with the scenery, but to me it's a big deal (and a big hearty thanks to Unc and Tam for throwing linky-love my way - I'd be quite much further from this milestone without links from them and other big time bloggers like Robb and Breda and Kevin).

Thank you. Everyone that reads my poo-flinging humble scribbling. Everyone that links me. Everyone that sends me stories. Everyone that has provided guidance along the way. And especially to the drivers and legislators in MA that provide me with a nearly endless well of rage to tap for inspiration...

I hope to be here for several million more hits, and I hope you'll be reading and commenting too.

That is all.

Congrats, even if 500,000 of them HAVE been me over the years. :)

Congratulations! Check your RSS feed statistics, as well. SiteMeter doesn't measure them, and you'll probably find they add several hundred readers a day to your total. (In my case, they add up to 50% to Sitemeter's daily visit count.)

Congrats Jay. I was watching for your 1mil mark but eventually had to give up and go to bed.

Maybe should have turned off the counter so you could see it happen during the day! heh

Congrats!

As a sidenote, on your second million hits, everyone who's read your blog chips in to replace the weak spot in that vein on your forehead that's nearly always pegged;)
