I set myself a modest goal, three hundred sixty five days or so ago, of posting entries on at least 95% of the days of the calendar year and getting the overall site posting rate up into the upper 60 percent range (at the time it was at about 63%). It ended up a matter of posting many short and silly entries, but I accomplished my goal with percentage points to spare.
This year I’ve set a somewhat different goal. I want to maintain a 75% post rate for the year and I want most of what I write to be more entertaining, more detailed and (hopefully) more interesting. In short: Write less often, but write better.
If I can pull this off, visiting this site may end up being a form of entertainment even for people who don’t know me personally. Hey, it’s something to shoot for. What’s the point to surviving from year to year if we don’t set ourselves the occasional challenge?

Goals? Dunno what they’re like *cough* I’m still working on a way to incorporate my moment of brilliance into entries for the year. Doing that everyday may be overkill though. But I’m working on it.
I find you fairly entertaining anyway
Uh huh. I always find you entertaining. 😉 And my goal is to post once a week this year. After this year, we’ll see…
I like your blog. Your writing is always interesting and fun. Keep up the good work!
Happy ’06!
