I Don't Know Exactly What to Say...

But I'll say a lot anyway.

As I type this, The Smallest Minority will receive its 250,000^th recorded site visit on Sitemeter since I set up the service on May 16, 2003.

Thanks, y'all.

Check out this graph of the last 11 months of traffic:

Or this graph of 85 weeks of site visits (I didn't save a couple of weeks, apparently, but it's pretty obvious when I got a link from Kim du Toit or Steven Den Beste, or an Instalanche)

For a pretty-much single-issue blog, those aren't bad numbers. (I'm not Kim du Toit, but hey, who is?) And it's a slow, but steady progression.

I started this blog to give me a place to be an advocate for individual rights - a place to voice my views and to hopefully help educate a populace that too often hasn't been told what their rights are supposed to be under the system of government we're supposed to be living in. I hope I've done at least some of that. I hope to do a lot more of it. Thank you all for visiting, and reading, and most especially, commenting. This thing works better with feedback. Thanks to everybody who has linked to me, either in a post, or in their blogrolls. That's feedback too, and I really appreciate it.

As I just checked, visitor number 250,000 came from IP 69.139.92.# and went directly to my February 2004 archive page to see this cartoon from last year's Superbowl, brought by a Google search on "Political Cartoons." That cartoon has brought me a LOT of traffic, and still does.

Well, Mr. or Ms. Visitor, if you checked the front page after looking at the cartoon, thanks for visiting. Tell your friends! Y'all come back, now, y'hear?
