The WordPress.com stats helper monkeys prepared a 2012 annual report for this blog.
Here’s an excerpt:
The new Boeing 787 Dreamliner can carry about 250 passengers. This blog was viewed about 1,600 times in 2012. If it were a Dreamliner, it would take about 6 trips to carry that many people.



Congratulations Sam! Here’s to another great year! xxx
Thanks, Edith. It’s because of followers like you that I’m inspired to post even as little as I do. It’s good to know someone is actually reading what I post.
Thanks for writing a thoughtful blog, Sam. I wish I were as devoted to mine. Maybe when I retire….
Thank you for your comment, Nancilynn. I’m certainly not as devoted to my blog as I had hoped I’d be but at the same time I’m happy that I’ve managed to write more than I’d expected to do. Retirement has its benefits but when there are no deadlines, it’s really easy to let time get away from you. Maybe in 2013 I’ll manufacture some deadlines – with real penalties for failure to meet! – and see if that will enhance my “devotion.” LOL
Congratulations, Sam! I always appreciate your thought-provoking and interesting posts. Keep up the great work. Happy New Year!
Thanks so much, Kathy. You’ve been one of my most loyal commenters and I certainly appreciate that. It’s thanks to you and others like you that my stats are as good as they are. Blissings to you!
Well, i jumped aboard toward the tail-end. so unless it’s a Southwest Airlines 787, I’m somewhere in econo-class, if not the luggage bay.
Nonetheless, thank you, Miss Sam, for giving all us something worth replying to. Keep making it so.
Ed, you are sooo good for my ego! LOL For you, I’ll try to come up with something profound every now and again. *S*
