I realize that's small potatoes compared to some cities, but surely it rates larger than "small town?"Impetuahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15354915621349760545noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11920826.post-39449170586855373252008-01-13T12:28:00.000-05:002008-01-13T12:28:00.000-05:00I just think it's funny that some people refuse to...I just think it's funny that some people refuse to leave a comment no matter what. I have at least a dozen readers who stop by on a daily or weekly basis who have NEVER left a comment. <BR/><BR/>But I like your suggestion to add Delurking Day to my calendar. Since I publish it on a blog it makes sense to list it there. Watch for it next year.Jeff and Charli Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13868852480996815442noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11920826.post-32736435289862574382008-01-13T11:27:00.000-05:002008-01-13T11:27:00.000-05:00I've mentioned several times that my parents read ...I've mentioned several times that my parents read my blog. Probably more than my wife does. I'm fine with them lurking most of the time. And it saves me a lot of phone calls because they can just read my blog to see what I'm up to.yellojkthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09592683505688819187noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11920826.post-33761804004345009622008-01-13T11:16:00.000-05:002008-01-13T11:16:00.000-05:00Well..."One never knows, do one?" --Fats WallerI k...Well..."One never knows, do one?" --Fats Waller<BR/><BR/>I know that there are numerous people whom I know personally but who aren't inclined to comment at my site. And every once in awhile someone at work will surprise me by citing something I've written, or even just acknowledge that they've seen it. <BR/><BR/>But your advice is sound in that you really can't worry too much about who is reading, or how many of them there are. It can occasionally have a paralyzing effect on the writing itself. <BR/><BR/>But yeah, there are times when not having comments kind of sucks, since writing is a form of art, and the point of art is to evoke a reaction.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11920826.post-69904779810439946782008-01-13T10:37:00.000-05:002008-01-13T10:37:00.000-05:00impetua,My boss knew that the guy in the picture w...impetua,<BR/>My boss knew that the guy in the picture was a small town mayor and loved that aspect of the picture's notoriety.<BR/><BR/>motd,<BR/>A couple of blogs I read have had to deal with lurkers that border on stalkers.
