So, a little while ago, we rolled past another million visits. Took us about 6 months since the last time. In perspective, more people have been here than will probably watch MSNBC all year. For Rush, Instapundit, Drudge, etc., this is just the afternoon's hits on a slow day.
But for this little curbside lemon stand blog, we remain somewhat astonished, and humbled.
Thanks for dropping by.
Like 7-11 coffee... your blog is a daily stop for me!
ReplyDeleteI myself, try to do a daily driveby.

BANG!
*Sorry...
BANG!
*Sorry...
Kudos! The content of your blog is beyond outstanding. Keep it up, and don't falter.
ReplyDeleteIn your face truth-telling writing that doesn't hold back. Pity those targeted by Aesop, as there is simply no hope left for them. They're just going down in flames.
ReplyDeletePlus, there are often many hilarious dashes of dark humor, just less recently though. Must be because we see dark clouds around.
And let's not forget the sunday music post.
Got here initially thru an Ebola article on Peak Prosperity, have been here since.
I also check in daily. Also from Canada.
Can Aesop give general stats as to visits by country ? Just curious.
Congrats to yor latest numbers.
Every freaking day, got here from Phil and his stuffed garage.

We check this several times a day, first to see the new items and the other times to see the ever-increasing comment sections. I came over here from the Gun-Counter. For some types of news, this is the ONLY place to see it.
ReplyDeleteIn the immortal words of Sam Elliot as Sgt Major Plumley in "We Were Soldiers" and I paraphrase: Sir, Drudge is a pussy, you ain't.
ReplyDeleteCame here from Kevin's Weaponsman site ( PBUH) when we were both commenters. This is a D1R as we used to call them in the Fleet.
ReplyDeleteRock on, Brother; you're doing God's Work

I have been curious about drudge headlines for some time. Don't get past them much anymore with all the stupid shit headlines. Someone said publicly the other day drudge has been compromised and told to do what he has been doing. Wouldn't surprise me. It is mostly trash now. Congrats Aesop.
ReplyDeleteThank your for your commentaries and insights. And the time and work into writing them for the rest of us to read and think about. If the material wasn't good, so many people would not be visiting and coming back for more.
ReplyDeleteThank you for being here, I check you out on a daily basis.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on the new milestone and thank you for all the effort you put into your writing.
ReplyDeleteCame here originally via Kenny's place, when you were the only source of rational researched Ebola news back in the early 2010's, countering the codswallop from Obama and company's propaganda machine. Stuck around, daily lately, for the entertaining skewerings of all things that are fucked up in the grand USA and occasionally elsewhere.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the new milestone and wishing you continued readership growth in leaps and bounds!

Congrats and keep doing God's work. I found your site from a linked article over at WRSA. If I could write like you my life would be complete. RLTW!
ReplyDeleteLike most folks, I came here from somewhere else. WRSA, Wirecutter I don't remember but - I DO check back here on a daily basis. I appreciate what you are doing and the wisdom that you disseminate. Keep it up!

Huzzah!
ReplyDeleteCongrats Brother...Be seeing you in a couple months...
ReplyDeleteA friend who spent 10-13 years as the librarian for JFKSWCS (Special Forces Schoolhouse) turned me on to you. Not a wasted click in a couple od years...
ReplyDeleteHELP, please.
I'm looking for your longish post on how to build a decent VLOG or y-tube instructional piece. I've scanned from here to about May 2018 and didn't either SEE or IDENTIFY it.
Link puhleeze??
Thanks Aesop! Stops to make my day: Raconteur, Ace of Spades, & the others WRSA, Don Surber, Epoch Times, NY Sun, Zero Hedge.
ReplyDeleteCongrats, Aesop!
ReplyDeleteAnd Anon, I think the post you're looking for is here:

Got here same as Boat guy.
ReplyDeleteYou numba one, GI! We love you long time.

Aesop, it doesn't refute the point you're making but I'm taking a small exception to one thing you said:
ReplyDeleteThe[y] don't take their psych meds for that, because those drugs make them feel "weird". (Normal people call that feeling "sanity", by no coincidence.)
Yes and no. Tardive dyskinesia and a raft of other adverse drug effects can reasonably be described as "feeling weird."
I used to know a woman who was on the first generation of antipsychotics back when they were the state of the art. She hated the way the drugs made her feel; fortunately the dyskinesia was mild though she had other adverse effects as well. She couldn't work at the level she'd been able to before her psychosis took hold... but to her, al the above was much less bad than being crazy.
She was a decent mother when on her meds. She loved her kids and would have died before she inflicted her craziness on them and one way or another made them motherless. Because she was a person of basically good character and loved someone else more than she loved her own feelz, she sucked it up and kept going.
With that qualification, I agree with everything you say.
Excellent! Cannot remember which site referenced you, read several that do.
ReplyDeleteAny way that was quite awhile ago and check here at least once a day.
Keep it up! Give em' hell!
The truth hurts those who deny it.
Can't remember where I came from to get here, but I'm damn glad I got here!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the Million!
Your writing and astute observations are truly a delight to read, I try to stop in daily.You have a gift of articulation that is incredibly rare and often missing from other blogs of similar taste. Keep it up! As an aside, given your occupation, I often wonder why you continue to bear witness to the Fall of the once great state of California... unless of course you're multi-generational and hope for a return to sanity at some point in the future... anyway, write on.
