Many Thanks to my #1 Reader in 2006: TomH.dfm.uidaho.edu

I just finished running my reader statistics for 2006.

I want to give my personal thanks to my #1 reader: someone at the University 
of Idaho.

TomH.dfm.uidaho.edu (IP address of 129.101.104.179) accessed my blogsite 
31,578 times in the last year.

Whoever you are — thanks for being such a great fan of my blog!

If anyone wants to see the browsing logfile of TomH.dfm.uidaho.edu, please 
holler. But be advised: it’s 768 pages long.

The logfile is pretty revealing. This person starts reading my blog every 
work day somewhere between 7:30 and 8:00. And then he/she reads tons more 
thruout the day.

You can learn a great deal about someone’s work habits by browsing webserver 
logs.

Again: thanks to my #1 reader and #1 fan!

By golly, Comb-Over, that most certainly is the computer I use at work.  And 
I’ll admit that I do visit your BLog a few times each day.  But 31,578 times 
in the past year?? Come now.

Let’s do some math, shall we.  I work six hours per day Monday thru Thursday 
and four hours on Friday, unless I decide to take some unpaid time off 
(which I do on occasion) or take some vacation time (which I do regularly).  
That equates to 28 hours per 5-day week.  Generously assuming 4.25 weeks per 
month (12-month year), this equates to fifty-one 28-hour weeks or 1,428 
hours per year.  Keep in mind that this is assuming that I work on holidays 
and never take any time off from work.  Assuming that your claim of 31,578 
times your BLog has been accessed in the last year by the government 
computer I use at work is accurate, for me to be the sole user of that 
government computer, I would have had to access your BLog 22 times each and 
every hour that I was at work for the past year.

I don’t see it, Comb-Over.  Maybe three or four times per day, generously 20 
times per week, maybe 600 times during 2006.  Even then it is for a few 
seconds or so, like somebody slowing down to look at a traffic accident.

But I do appreciate the PR, Comb-Over.  Thanks.  Now, if only you would 
permit access by either of my computers at home.  Hmmm.  You can pass on to 
gcrabtree I simply have no need for ointment or bandaids in this matter.  
But, if the sandbox is running low, I hear that WinCo is having a sale on 
Crisco.

Here are a couple items you may want to download, print, and memorize.  They 
make for good reading. I have copies stashed in my desk at work.

State of Idaho Computer-Use Policy

University of Idaho Computer-Use Policy

I am afraid that if you want copies of WSU’s Computer-Use policy, you may 
have to obtain one from No-Clue.  I threw my copy away a while back, seeings 
how I no longer needed it.

However, it is nice to see you care.

Sidebar to Comb-Over - I certainly hope that my stats (pre-fab as they were) 
earned you some points at the sandbox Show-n-Tell.
