The Complementary Spouse and I made a bet back in September. She thought I’d hit a half million visitors to this blog by December 31st. I thought that was a bit optimistic.
I was wrong.
Now the question is what I will need to pay for losing the bet. I’m thinking this.
However, I will let her make the choice on what she wants for winning the bet – even if it is a Glock!
I do want to thank each and every visitor to this blog since May 19, 2010. You are what make this rewarding.
The Complementary Spouse and I had a bet on whether I would have 100,000 visits to this blog before the end of 2010. I think the total was in the 60,000 range when we made the bet. Obviously, she had more faith in me than I did. The 100,000th visitor was yesterday evening and was from the state of Ohio.
Our bet was for $1 just like in the Dan Ackroyd – Eddie Murphy movie Trading Places.
As I said, I lost the bet and I’m happy about it. Thanks to all who have visited and continue to visit this blog.
Also, thanks are due to other bloggers like Sebastian, SayUncle, Instapundit, Dave Hardy, and David Codrea who have linked to my posts here. Without them and their links to this blog, I’d still be puttering along with a few hits a day.
Finally, thanks to the Complementary Spouse aka The Blog Widow for her faith in me and this blog.
