Lucky Ten Thousandth Visitor

Someone reading this entry is going to be my ten thousandth visitor.

Just take a look at the that counter over there in the left hand column. It may be YOU. Alas there is no prize, but you will earn my undying gratitude. I would never have believed it possible. Ten thousand readers, imagine.

Well, there are a few mitigating facts.  It counts everytime I check in to read your comments, and it counts each time I make corrections on my entry, and I do a lot of that..

If you are number ten thousand, I hope you will leave your name in the comments.  I'd like to say thanks in an email.

I have made a lot of friends online and I love you all. All I can say is

THANK YOU

PS. Number 10000 read the journal at 11 pm EST, and did not leave a comment.  Thank you, everyone...chuck

It says 10001 now.  But don't forget - many of us read the alert text (especially those of us on dial-up and who have little time), and don't actually go to the journal itself, so the REAL count of readers is probably much higher.

GEEZ....
Ellen DeGeneres gave big prizes to number 9,999 including floor seat tickets to the Rolling STones... and flew the 10,000th audience member's family from Alaska to L.A. and then gave them all a trip from Alaska to Bermuda for a super deluxe vacation!  And then John Stamos came out as a guest on the show and gave the 10,001st
audience member a 42" plasma tv!  Would have been just MY luck to have been 10,009, just like I am on THIS site.

How come you're not giving a gift?  LOL  It might have been YOU!
