Stats.
I have to admit, I'm kind of a stats junky. Since I don't get a lot of comments, looking at the stats at least assures me there are more people reading than my family and a few friends. ;)
So, invariably, one of the first things I do on Monday is download the log for the previous week. I make my way through the haze of information to try and figure out how many people are really reading...hits, views, visitors...what does it all mean?

Just to give you an example, from December 12 through yesterday I've had 135,367 hits, 53,557 page views and 37,134 visitors. So what does that mean exactly? I have no idea! Well, other than the basic truth that I need more readers than that if I'm going to afford to stay on the road with gas going up to $4 a gallon. :p
Anyway, what I really wanted to share with you was that every week I get a laugh out of the interesting search phrases people use. Sometimes I try to think back as to why in heaven's name google, in all their wisdom, would return my site as one of the options. I thought I'd share some of my favorites, in no particular order:
