Freaky Frugalite

I was looking at my traffic stats yesterday. Look at how it is broken down by country.

Isn’t that amazing?! I mean- Kenya? Iceland?! Serbia? Kuwait?! What is “BA” by the way?

And are these spambots, or are these real people? And- MAN- I really need to brush up on my formal English for this blog. I tend to use a lot of idioms and other idiosyncracies of the English language. I wonder if it is all just gibberish to other folks?

I am awed by the fact that so many people know English. I mean, back in America’s founding years, only the Americans and the British used English- everyone in the world used French to communicate with each other. It’s interesting to see how things have shifted. I marvel at how well people from other countries speak English as their second-language. English is not easily mastered (just as the average public-schooled student), so I am impressed.

So how about you and your blog? Do you get a lot of visitors from far-reaching countries? How does it affect your own writing?
