1000 Published Posts

When asked about this blog, I am most frequently asked why do I write?

Dunno, felt good at the time.
Gives me an outlet for creativity.
I like to share my thoughts.
It helps keep my Sister up to date with what's going on.
I can do my Technical Writing here.
It is entertaining to me.
It can be entertaining to others.

All of the above.

This is my 1000th posting.  That's a lot of writing.

I've done a post a day, every day since September 13th, 2009.  Who knows how long I will keep this up?  Someday my priorities will change, I'll find my time used up by other things.  This typically takes about a half hour a day on average to do.  I don't write every single day since I do tend to post jokes sent to me on Saturday and Sunday.

Since I've never actually gotten paid for any of this writing, I could easily walk away with a shrug.  It wouldn't be the first time that I volunteered for something I found interesting and stayed with it for a long time.  My own personal philosophy is find something you enjoy and look for the long term results.   When I got into inline skating with everyone else back in the 1990s, I continued until I skated 21,000 miles. 

Long term.  Besides I enjoyed that as well.

In any of these round number pat on the back posts, you always have a list.  

Here's my top 10 postings of all time.
  1. Gold Medal Flour Extraordinary Biscuits.
  2. Morning Rain Brings Barky Showers.
  3. Hotmail Annoyance - Turn Off Keyboard Shortcuts.
  4. Willie T's Bar Key West Picture.
  5. New Post, New Month, Last Picture.
  6. Merry Xmas, Here's Your Sign!
  7. True Story - 2 Duck Hunters in Wisconsin.
  8. Parking Hours Discussed at the City Commission.
  9. GFS Marketplace Review.
  10. Ikea Poang vs La-z-Boy Barnett Reclina-Rocker Review.
Seems like people like Biscuits, My Dog, are annoyed with Hotmail, Like Willie T's (I've got to go back), Jokes including City Commission, GFS, and my Chairs.
