Monday Night Countdown

It’s time for my pal Phil‘s favourite weekly series here on this blog, and this week it’s an all-new TOP 5 countdown featuring the TOP 5 Internet search terms that were used to find this blog over the past 30 days:

Let’s kick it:

5.  Funny Restaurant Names / Funny Chinese Restaurant Names / Funny Thai Restaurant Names  – 72 views

4.  Orange Chicken – 108 views

3.  Tsunami – 143 views

2.  Homestead Pavilion – 144 views

1.  Biggest Cat In The World / Largest Cat / Giant Cat / Massive Cat / 44-Pound Feline – 199 views

There’s only one real surprise in this TOP 5 countdown, and that would have to be the ‘orange chicken’ entry. The Monday April 14TH 2008 edition of ‘The Fortune Cookie Message Of The Week Club’ is (believe it or not) the # 2 most-read blog entry (out of over 460) in the entire history of this blog. It was an unassuming edition in which I featured a picture of an appetizing bowl of orange chicken from Panda Express. That single blog entry from nearly four months ago continues to generate up to 10 new views per day !

Some things you just can’t explain.

Wow. This is so original. But still, I can’t help but feeling like I’ve seen something similar to this on other people’s blogs…

This is actually a recurring blog topic from me. Long before you or any of the other LPC bloggers ever dreamt of the Internet search terms that were used to reach your blogs I was already blogging about them so many months ago. I even did a short story based on the search terms at the time as recently as a month ago. Check it out here.
