Visitations III
After ribbing Japan on Monday for not having visited my web site the past few weeks, wouldn’t you know it that when I checked my web stats the next morning, someone from Japan visited sometime that very day. So now all the countries I’ve been to in real life have visited at least once in the last few weeks.
It’s possible that the timing was coincidence, but I think my psychic powers have grown to the point that I can manipulate minds in Tokyo. I did not seem to have a similar effect on the druids, not too surprising given how they resisted the Jedi. Much to learn have I.
It’d be cool if Google could hook up their map of places that have visited to Google Earth so I could see what some of these places look like. Also if they could provide some fun facts about the location, like if you clicked on Ridgefield, Washington and it mentioned that it is the birthplace of U-Haul and the high school team is named the Spudders.
There are also some grade schools that link in, which is mostly good, but I had a pang of conscience at some of my picture descriptions. If you’re a teacher and a student says that bufflehead “primarily eat small creatures like snails, mussels, and Star Wars figurines”, look, I have no idea where they could have gotten such an idea. None.
Nevertheless, perhaps now is a good time to teach them that not everything they read on the Internet is true.
In looking at referalls, I see that my site referred itself a few times. This is clearly impossible and a sure sign that I have opened a portal into a parallel universe. Star Trek fans, you know the drill: don’t trust anyone in a goatee until I get this sorted out.
