I find it vaguely disconcerting that, one day, when I was goofing around on Blogger.com, I discovered that this blog has been viewed by people in Russia, South Korea, China, Singapore and Slovenia.
I THINK (?) I could point out China on a map. But, Russia? Slovenia? The others? Clueless.
So, HELLO OUT THERE, PEOPLE OF FOREIGN NATIONS! I HAVE NO IDEA WHERE ON PLANET EARTH MOST OF YOU ARE, BUT I'M GLAD YOU LANDED HERE.
It is amazing to me that it is possible to communicate with people I don't know, in multiple time zones, who speak languages I can't even begin to understand. That's how interconnected we've become through the magic of the Internet.
One of the features I really do love about this website is the ability to hit a magic button* and cruise around to other blog sites I'd never know existed. I'm pretty sure that's where my Singapore and Slovenia connections come from because they were one view wonders.
But, Russia? Someone in the land o' vodka thinks enough of me to have come back 38 times! So, shout out to you: send good vodka anytime and I'll review it on this here website? Okie-dokie?
I'm hoping that my South Korean reader of five times will come back and send some rocking soy sauce. That way, my China connection (reader times deux), can supply some authentic noodles and I'll be set!
Slovenia? I'm not at all sure what the heck you bring to the table, but you're welcome to send anything that doesn't contain dog or horse meat, pickled brains, or shelf-stable foods that could go head-to-head with a Twinkie in terms of sustainability.
For my part? I'll send Hershey bars to anyone who takes me up on the offer. How much more American can you get than that?**
Have a great day world! Glad to get to know ya.
*The "Next Blog>>" button at the top of the website. Hit it and see where you go! WHEEEEE.
**OK. I'll give you "Apple Pie" and "Hot Dogs" but I don't even want to try to ship those.....
