13.58 – Ok, so near the end of the month, Arseblog will be one year old. When I first started it I had no idea it would become as popular as it has. I also had no idea if I’d have the time or inclination to update it nearly every day for a year. I thought perhaps it was one of my passing fads, like learning to play the guitar or frequenting massage parlours. Anyway, it’s been nearly a year, I’ve managed to post something nearly every day, and the number of visitors gets bigger every month. On Monday, we had over 5,000. A new record.
I think it’s fantastic, and a big thank you to all of you who visit every day. However, this does add to the costs of running the site. Now, I’m not going to go cap in hand and beg for money with Paypal because I hate that, and I have turned down advertising because I want to keep the site pop-up free and reasonably pleasing on the eye. So, what to do?
Well, in order to mark the upcoming birthday, there is a whole new range of Arseblog merchandise for you to choose from. It features our favourite swear word and the whole idea and concept of the new design is totally and utterly original…oh yes. If you buy something, Arseblog makes $2. This means you can get top quality Arseblog stuff, and you get to help the site. Prices are in US$ so that makes everything really cheap for those of you in the UK.
Anyway, if you want to buy something that’s great. If not, don’t worry about it. Me and the wife and 6 kids, and the dog and 3 cats will continue to forage through the woods at the back of our house shack in the hope of finding an old squirrel or some non-poisonous berries to eat.
New merchandise. Take a peek. Cheers.
