Although I have mightily enjoyed talking into the mirror for the last two years, I really need to think about getting more readers. Hence, the new hit counter.
Now what? More research is necessary.

People who read your blog don't always have something to say about it. You are assuming a lack of comments as no readers and that may not be true.
Hit counter is good. Positive step in the walk of a solitary fucker. Be there no fire under the arse, one shall be provided by the state. Which state? Well that's up for discussion.
I'm not thinking about ads, not really. I guess it's in the back of my head though. Mostly, I'm thinking that it would be nice to have more readers. Let's face it, I'm a lawyer, and a teacher, and I write for (self) publication, so I must be impressed with my own opinions and the sound of my own voice!
There are just too many blogs, and not enough time. If you want hits, the fastest way is to commit some bloody on-campus mass murder, or be caught holding a kidnapped girl after 18 years, or shoot up a woman's gym class or a bunch of kindergardeners, or the like (all have happened in the past 12 months)... It's the American way to get a morbidly-fascinated following. -ES
Oh, Ed, I don't have half the energy needed for any of that.
Maybe I should just finish my novel, and try to get it published, and try to get readers for that, but then again, that would probably be even a stupider idea.

What's up with the hit counter? Are you getting adds?
