Look what happens when you're away.....

As of  this moment (and changing each moment), ThurstonBlog has garnered in excess of 89,000 views!!!!!

Not too bad for a little local blog that was strictly intended to be a place for people to talk whenever the Conservatives got The Olympian comments shut down.

Go back in the archives and look at the early posts in 2009 (I think) and you'll see the beginnings and even see a few comments from the conassholes who were furious that we still had a place to discuss.

I fondly recall how certain media types said no one read ThurstonBlog and yet, I was emailed about a "death threat" (which, of course was nothing other than a drama play by an editor).  No one reads ThurstonBlog except the media heads.....oh, and the local conassholes that complain about our content.

They just can't quit reading....no matter how offended they are.

Yeah....uh huh.
