I’ve got two serious posts in me left over from my race to get our bond. Don’t have time for them. I see my old friend, Mr. Four Pension, Prancing Prince, Ralph Doty is beating me up again in the Budgeteer. (Doesn’t this Florida resident have anything better to write about?) I ought to comment on his drivel as well as the taxpayer paid for (I think) drivel of Dr. Dixon who has brilliantly trotted out his discredited reasons from two years ago for his infatuation with the Red Plan. (My guess? Eleven bronze plaques with his name on them as the great builder of Duluth’s schools who piled them up like a Pharoah on the backs of teachers and children and vote denied taxpayers.)
I’ve got a wedding this afternoon and I’d like to spend some quiet time with my wife and maybe do a little gardening. I’ll just mention that I took a quick look at the stats for lincolndemocrat and they keep spiraling upward despite my falling behind in new info. Today, with only last night’s dunk tank story I’ve already got 100 visitors at 10AM. And its summer!
Last month was the blog’s record for visitors at 905 “unique” visitors for the month. We’re just a little past the halfway point through July and we may just break a thousand visitors this month. Wait till school starts in fall and the campaign season heats up. With the Trib’s halfhearted coverage of the schools and people clamoring for school district news I expect all the old records to be ground into dust. And I don’t charge for subscriptions!
