Who are the people in my neighborhood?

Remember the segment on “Sesame Street” where a resident of the Street (usually Bob) would go around meeting different folks?

I always LOVED this segment, and I’m still curious about such matters.

Today I’m particularly curious about the folks who are the people in my Internet neighborhood.

I get about 20 visits a day via Site Meter, mostly from folks looking for an old-fashioned water pump or researching zits. But, I’m also getting more hits from Georgia (where I live) than I used to.

Feedburner indicates about 30 people a day access my blog’s feed in some way. I don’t fully understand the wonder that is Feedburner, so I don’t know exactly what that number means. But, I know that at least a few of those Feedburner hits come from people, not bots.

I’d love for those of you who read — and especially those of you who mainly “lurk” — to say “hi” via comment or e-mail and tell me something about you. I LOVE that each of you comes, whether it’s every day or every few months.

It’s a pleasure to meet you.

I have a lot of international readers, which always makes me curious. I wish they would comment more too.

hey….you know those little signs that co-workers will hang from their cubes or office door knobs that say something like …..”rather be fishing” or “rather be up to my ears in tomatoes”? anyway, mine would read, “rather be running the bases.” that’s something about me, but you already knew that.

i got here by googling “youngest aarp member” and then clicking the link to your new blog.

thought you should know that your random ramblings sometimes get some very random visitors (that are people!).
