So I am checking my IP tracker the
other day, which I do just to see whereabouts visitors are coming
from, and I see I have a hit from Hawaii...At first my heart skips a
beat, I start thinking impossible things or nearly impossible things.
My mind dashed back to Buffalo, NY in 1987 when I met Diane Lee, who
as soon as I saw her I developed a crush on her. Not that that means
anything, hell I don't even know if she liked me, though I would
guess probably not. Besides we literally did live an entire country
apart. I stayed in touch with her, this is back in the day before
internet kids, technically I am sure it was available, but it was way
in its infancy, not yet ready for public consumption, so our keeping
in touch consisted of letters (remember those?) and phone calls,
which made my mom ever so happy to see calls to Hawaii on the phone
bill. And we all know how much I talk, so once I start you can
imagine how long they would go on before they ended.
My hopes were quickly dashed when
I saw the IP provider, NNIC, or Navy Network Information Center for
those not in the know, I will save you a Google trip. Now the
conspiracy side of me kicks in, much like I attributed my last PAT
bus crash on competitors in my fantasy football league, there had to
be an extraordinary reason for this. It could be because of my 9/11
post a few days back, when I said I didn't feel safer now than I did
14 years ago. I also in that post suggested why I shouldn't be
trusted with a firearm, the compulsion to shoot stupid people would
be too great. Perhaps words such as those triggered an alarm bell
someplace and now I am residing on a No Fly list, which would be
surprising because I have never been on a plane to begin with, My
life has been a No Fly list to this point.
Or perhaps the Crazy Canadian has
duped some poor military dude with her package of lies. It's
possible, I know I wasn't the only guy she lied to, there were at
least two others and probably more, I think she was addicted to the
attention to be honest. If that was the case I pity him. Good luck
with that bundle of nonsense.
The only other explanation is
that someone I do not know stumbled across this page and found
something they liked, but really, what is there to like about this
page? That would be the least likely of all possibilities. Far
better to go the crazy conspiracy route, after all, look how well it
works for Alex Jones.
LOLOL.... I've had hits from Russia... Venezula.... and Turkey... is that something I should worry about?
ReplyDeleteYou're too funny at times.
Well Google analytics being what they are, I am not sure I can trust their info but it does give me a chance to answer the quiz question I posted a while back as far as the top te countries to visit my blog (according to Google); 1) USA, 2) Canada, 3) Russia, 4) France, 5) Australia, 6) Germany, 7) Ukraine, 8) Poland 9) United Kindom and 10) Portugal. It reads more like my crappy draw at the beginning of a game of RISK. That being said the little TIP thing over on the right (tracemyip.org) gives you IP addresses and providers for those that visit, as well as what their screen resolution, browser and operating system is, and that was where I got my info about the Navy from. While it has its faults, namely all of the hits off of Facebook and Google are generated by the parent comapny and not somebody linking through them, TIP has been pretty accurate for me in regards to where genuine hits come from.
