I’m just like George Thorogood.
Well, I’m white. He’s white. We both play guitar. We’re both in bands. We both have giant skulls.
And we both love a challenge.
In 1981 George did probably the coolest thing a rock star could – he booked and performed fifty shows in fifty states in fifty days.
I committed in January to writing a post every day. One reason was to stretch my creative muscles. Another to deliver quality content to my readers who have been so great to support this blog.
I’m going to keep it up for as long as I can (I’m sure I’ll miss a day here and there), because I’m envigorated. In the past six months, the traffic has doubled about 6x over, and I now have some advertisers who help keep this pirate ship afloat (to borrow a phrase from Adam Carolla).
I’m ready to move this thing full steam ahead in 2012. I have some ideas of other verticles I’d like to roll out, and I can only do it with continued support.

So please tell a friend – it’s the best thing you can do for this website. I thank you very much for your readership and continued support.
Here’s a story that you’ve probably missed that I feel is a classic. My Handerpants Amazon.com review.
And just to clarify, I was absolutely joking when I said I was anything like George Thorogood. He’s way cooler.
