January 2016

We're a bit behind schedule, but.... it's coming, kids. It'll be mostly Twilight Zone, but The Outer Limits will certainly creep in from time to time. And c'mon, if you like The Outer Limits, you gotta like The Twilight Zone too. You know I'm right.




Heh, I just realized that that promo kinda evokes the opening title for The Unknown, the Daystar TV pilot that became TOL's "The Forms of Things Unknown." 



It's completely coincidental... I actually took the pic at Arcadia Beach near Seaside, a favorite spot of Teresa and I.  Here's the original:




It's amazing what a little Photoshop can do. And hey, as long we're discussing Arcadia Beach, here's a really cool shot of Teresa, taken the same day as the above pic:



...anyhoo---- see (well, hear) ya in January, kids. Tune in or else.

The Forms of Statistics Unknown...

So you read blogs (since you're reading this one, I can only assume you read others as well). Well, d'ya ever wonder which specific blog entries are the most popular, i.e. the most frequently viewed? I sure do.... but since I'm clearly an internet amateur, I had no idea I could actually track this.

There are multiple different time periods available to me, but I chose two to share: this week (top) and all-time (bottom). Check 'em out:

Looks like folks are partial to "I, Robot" this week (I can't imagine why)... but holy shit! "ZZZZZ" is far and away the single most-accessed entry of all time! I'd love to credit my writing, but I'm pretty sure it's the many pictures of the supremely gorgeous Joanna Frank (not to mention that hot Woody Welch painting).

One more: here are the blog's all-time page views:

Wow, the big 100K isn't far off. It just amazes (and humbles me) that people are still reading this blog. You like me, you really like me!
