I've been checking out the archives over here recently, to try and gauge what sort of information said archives would reveal about the inner workings of my personality. Not much, other than I am a greedy pig, but that's not particularly new information. What is interesting, however, is that my traffic has gone down proportionately to how much less I beg and whine and link to camlists. Odd, isn't it? I like to think though, that the quality of my audience has gone up, wouldn't you agree?

I've also noticed that I wasn't very funny. And basically illiterate. I tend to think of myself as operating on only the most basic level of literacy--since I managed to miss those years of high school where they teach you about grammar and punctuation--and while that is still true, I have definitely improved. Which is nice to know. Going back to college to major in English has been a struggle. I've had people nearly bowl over with laughter as they contemplate my post-graduation job prospects. So at least this last decade of college has done something for me, if only to make my crappy webpage a little more palatable and my descriptions of japscat that much more rich.

In my research I also stumbled upon some of the more "classic" shutitdown posts from the few years such as the infamous post, "Bright Lights, Big Dick in My Ass."

Also, some of my favorite posts are of course, the instant message conversations with my brother.
