THE LIST TURNS 1!
Well, I’m not sure I thought it would ever happen but we officially turn 1 year old today. I would like to thank everyone who has tuned in to read my jibberish over the past 12 months. I’d also like to thank everyone who has supported not only myself but the blog and the podcast as well. This site is nothing without all of you.
It’s crazy because it took us nearly 3 months to cross 2,000 hits when we started and now we stand ready to cross the 70,000 mark. That’s quite a difference in just 9 months time. I cannot tell you how hard it is to maintain a family, a full time day job, a website and a podcast but when I know people care about what I have to say, it makes it well worth the effort.
I’ve been thinking about what to do for this post for months and I think it’s come down to this…
When I started this blog, it was just going to be a new list every week. I knew many would be film related but didn’t start making this an exclusively movie-centric site until my third post. Which happened to be our first FILMS YOU DIDN’T KNOW YOU NEEDED TO SEE post. But what came before that? Well, it wasn’t pretty but if you’s like to read my first attempts at trying to illicit smiles from you, click the links before and check out THE LIST’s first offerings. Offerings that, until this point, I’m pretty sure only my Wife and Mother had read.
They’re embarrassing but I’ve always tried to be that guy who lays it all out there. So, enjoy:
Thanks again everybody!!!

Happy Birthday The List!
Now I’m going to spend the day wondering if a sneeze really is a near death experience. Where’s the pepper? 😉

BTW, Kai, I’m starting my own sort of comment contest thing at FFTSBH tomorrow (Tuesday). People come up with a witty phrase to go with a screen grab from a random movie. Head on over and take part. Thanks.

Happy 1 year anniversary Kai. You’ve made this blog a remarkable and fun place to visit. I have the unfortunate issue with being one of those “sir” people, however when I worked at a store I’d say it to everyone who was a customer. Some liked it, some hated it. I’d always say, “it’s a sign of respect, not of age.”

Too bad you changed formats…you really had something going there. With this movie stuff? Eh…not so much. 😉
Love ya, Kai! Happy blog burfday!

Happy Anniversary. It seems longer because you’ve turned into a sort of ubiquitous presence in the blogosphere over the last few months.
December 6, 2010 at 3:16 pm
WOW! Why, thank you! I think… not sure what ubiquitous means but sounds delightful! 🙂

Dude, I remember when this site was a barren wasteland! Great job, and you’re going to need to let me in on the secret of how you keep getting them punters back again and again.
Enjoy your 1st birthday, and remember, no boozin’ ’til The might List turns 21!!
