Tiny Flags

I have to confess: I am totally addicted to checking out the Feedjit icon on the blog, it's almost better than chocolate or shopping. Five months after I installed it, it still gives me a shiver of absolute happiness to see more flags (for the US readers) or new flags from other countries. Though I did spend time mulling over why someone in Qatar, Greece and even Canada would drop by for even a quick read and how they found my little corner of the blog-o-sphere. But don't misudnerstand, I am happy they did and by leaving their electronic footprint (and flag) on the Feedjit map; it makes me feel like I've won the lottery.

And now this morning, two enormous surprises: Kazakhstan and China. Thank you whoever you are for dropping in, hope I didn't bore you to tears and please come back anytime.

If you're in the mood for a laugh, find a video clip of Eddie Izzard's comedy bit on flags (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UTduy7Qkvk8), he's one of my favorite comedians - and the way things have been going with our plans to send Micah to Summit Speech School, I might need to go in search of a laugh for myself.
