It's funny...now I get emails that begin with these words: "Don't use this on your blog." Cracks me up. Come on guys, I haven't used all that many of your emails in my blog. :) Interestingly, I'm now getting several emails a week from people telling me that they're reading my blog, that they like it, that it makes them laugh, or cry, or both. I think that's really cool. Just let me say to all of you: Thanks for reading my blog.

When I started blogging (exactly one year ago), I began with this thought: I need to get some of my thoughts recorded. I'll start a blog...primarily for me...and if no one reads it, that's okay, I just wanna have a place to express myself.

Well, to my complete surprise, people actually seem interested in what I blog about. Amazing. Again, thank you. I'm humbled and honored that so many of you would take time out of your schedules to join me in "Thinking Outside the Bunn." Very cool.

I added a stats analyzer on February 5. Since that time, Thinking Outside the Bunn has been visited 2,206 times by 1,106 unique visitors (in only a month and a half). Again, I'm just amazed.

I've gotten visits from South America, China (quite often, actually), Africa, and all over Europe. Why? I have no idea. But it's cool.

So to those of you who take the time to read this blog, I again say, "Thanks." But here's my one beef...you guys don't leave comments! Afraid to put something out there into cyberspace, huh? Afraid that people might actually read what you have to say about my posts, huh? That's okay. I still love ya. But if you're ever so inclined...go ahead and leave a comment (or two). Believe it or not, just as you may be interested in my thoughts, I'm interested in yours.
