Passing Strange


Something bizarre has happened.

In the days past when I used to post new items on this blog site every day, I would average about 300 hits a day.

Recently, because I only post once or twice a week, I rarely get more than 200 hits.

But yesterday, a first.

1568 page loads

Wow!

What the heck was that all about?

I can't know for sure, but I have an idea.

Yesterdays post (PLUTO? URANUS?) was all about the BC Teachers federation.

Hm...

Could it be that one union member emailed or texted another union member and that person contacted three of her friends and so on?

Most mysterious.

That, and the 12 comments this morning suggests that I seem to have struck a noive.

Ouch!

Not exactly. Someone nicknamed "Robert W. (Vancouver)" linked to your web posting (see here: http://www.smalldeadanimals.com/archives/017228.html) while serving as a guest blogger on the far-right wing Canadian blog Small Dead Animals, which has elsewhere gained notoriety for its lovely ongoing commentaries about Aboriginals, Muslims, gays and lesbians, and other groups that its readers do not like.

Robert W. even brags about it here: http://www.smalldeadanimals.com/archives/017226.html#c623274.

How come everyone who refers to SDA as "far right-wing" or for that matter, criticizes right wing blogs posts anonymously? Are lefties cowards?

"Far Right" is code language used by Radical Leftists who hate anyone who disagrees with them. Their hatred runs so deep that they will frequently use ANY means necessary to shut up their opponents, be it via incarceration or even violence. Such zealots are the most un-Canadian of all citizens in our country.
