Compared with last March  we are down in Uniques and Visits and up in every other category.<\/font><\/p>\n

Here is our <\/font>ClustrMap<\/a><\/font> for 2018 YTD.  If it seems sparse, remember that this is only three month\u2019s traffic.<\/font><\/p>\n

\"Map3-2018\"<\/font><\/p>\n

ClustrMap misses a lot of visits, because many visits can\u2019t be easily traced to a location.<\/font><\/p>\n

Here are our top five articles:<\/font><\/p>\n

Personal Update \u2013 3\/16\/2018<\/a><\/font> 3\/16\/2018 1,075
<\/font>Samantha Bee from 3\/14<\/a><\/font> 3\/15\/2018 857
<\/font>Conor Lamb for Congress<\/a><\/font> 3\/12\/2018 810
<\/font>Happy St. CATrick\u2019s Day<\/a><\/font> 3\/17\/2018 789
<\/font>Tillerson Out Pompeo In<\/a><\/font> 3\/13\/2018 747<\/font><\/p>\n

The count represents only the people who followed an external link to that specific article.  All were from March.   I wrote all five.  I’m at a loss to understand why that personal update led the list 1ith over a thousand referrals.  A cat with a flat is of no political import.<\/font><\/p>\n

Here are our top non-blog\/news referrers (100 referral minimum):<\/font><\/p>\n

Google<\/a><\/font> 3,066
<\/font>Care2<\/a><\/font>  2,577
<\/font>Stumbleupon<\/a><\/font> 612
<\/font>Yandex 199
<\/font>Facebook 190<\/font><\/p>\n

All five are strongly up.  Yandex is the Russian government’s version of Google and more.  Since I advised you to UNPLUG!!<\/strong> several times, I found it ironic that Facebook made the list.  I opted not to link back to Yandex or Facebook, because their behavior makes them Republican sites.<\/font><\/p>\n

Here are our top  blog\/news referrers:<\/font><\/p>\n

We had 10 sites with 2 or more referrals, up 1 from March.  Putting blogs\u2019 links here increases the ratings of their sites, so this \u201clinkey love\u201d is our thank you for their referral support.  We still need to improve this.  I still think I need to start visiting our blog roll, which is terribly out of date.<\/font><\/p>\n

As of midnight April 1, we had 8,100 articles and 97,106 comments.<\/font><\/p>\n

Pat B earned a Big Mouth Award in February for the 97,000th comment.<\/font><\/p>\n

I recommend using your own avatar. Go to <\/font>Gravatar<\/a><\/font>.  Sign up using the email address you use to post comments here and upload the image you want to use as your avatar.  Whenever you comment under that email address here or on any WordPress blog (several others too), that image will become your avatar.<\/font><\/p>\n

Your Administrators are Lynn Squance, aka Sasquatch or Squatch, SoINeedAName, aka Nameless, and I, aka TomCat, the Founder.  Your Editors are Joanne Dixon, aka JD the Erynator and Lona Goudswaard, aka Lona the Napster.  I  promoted them from Author in August 2017 to give them the ability to add graphics to comments and the ability to correct my innumerable typos.<\/font><\/p>\n

This is our policy on links.  We do not embed links to extreme Republican websites, like Faux Noise, Breitfart <\/em>or World Nut Daily<\/em>.  However I leave notes in square brackets when I delete such links, (example: [faux noise delinked]<\/em>) so readers, who wish to follow them can click through to the source article.  I also remove topical links.  Finally, I blank the target on all links, so they open in a new tab or window.<\/font><\/p>\n

We now have just a little over six months, before we will have a major opportunity to reclaim part of out nation from the monster that possesses all three branches of government.  If you haven’t started working toward that end, the time is past due.<\/font><\/p>\n

Thank you for your support here and for all you do, everywhere you do it.<\/font><\/p>\n

RESIST THE REPUBLICAN REICH!!<\/font><\/h1>\n
