I was looking at some web site states for my personal site and found something I have never paid attention to before.

I can see, by country, where visitors are looking at my site from.

now i see this, and wonder "who" in the US Government is checking out my site.

I would like to affirm now that any post that was written to James from this screen name was the result of my... uh... cat... yeah that's it... my cat... running across my keyboard. Unfortunately the cat uhh... fell.. out of a tree... and now it's dead so it cant be interviewed. This post was made by a mouse... they got really bad after the cat died... I killed the mouse after I hit... I mean... it accidentally hit send... so it's not available for interrogation... uh.. interviewing... just wanted to make that clear...

I disavow all forms of association with this screen name except for if I want to ask him important stuff backpacking in Big Bend and stuff like that. Or photography... but I have nothing to do with him. Really. These aren't the droids you're looking for

guess what ICE.... I was looking around on a few other links that were eating up my bandwidth and discovered either you or someone claiming to be you (same avatar you got here) or your now ... um...dead cat (likely story) posted a bunch of links to my galleries of big bend on another forum and used up about 1/4 of my bandwidth for this month.

It is always fun to see where people are coming from. So far my favorite is someone from Cirque du Soleil coming by my site.

Isn't it though?

I used to post frequently on some local music boards, and my sig (same as here) has links to my personal site. Before I switched servers earlier this year I had a gallery with over 3600 images from many many local and regional concerts and events. I'm sure that some were linked from other sites and I knew most of the folks that were linking back to me.

But the one that I could never figure out was the 10-12 monthly hits I'd get from one of the boy-bands forums. (I can't remember now which one - was like Boys to Men or Backstreet boys or something like that) I tried to go out to the forums to find out what pic they were linking to and in what way - but I didn't want to pay the $99 yearly fee + however much the monthly fee was... Even IF i'd get a feee sticker in the mail!!! lol
