Ha!

I am, apparently, first [sequentially!] in a series on “The League of Extraordinarily Unlinked Bloggers.” Such kind words!
The one thing I feel obligated to point out, since it often gets lost in the shuffle of fairly normal complaining we lower-level and mid-tier bloggers engage in about that cash flow (never enough) and the level of unique visits (also never enough) is that there are many at “the top” who are quite generous with their linkage, including the divine Professor Reynolds. He’s been quite kind to me, really. Would I prefer that Glenn link me once a week? Well . . . yes. But it’s certainly welcome when it happens.
Ditto the boys at Hot Air, and Michelle Malkin. And Jeff and Darleen, and Dan. And even the folks at Ace’s place. They all link me. And every year more and more folks come back out of sheer habit, so I am left to conclude that though I don’t provide a lot of “red meat,” someone likes what I’m doing. Because . . . well, here they are.

I came to Little Miss Atilla for the waters.
The waters? What waters? Little Miss Atilla is in the desert.
I was misinformed.

Out of curiosity: I read you on Google Reader multiple times daily, but rarely click through. Do RSS feed statistics figure into traffic aggregates? Or am I essentially skipping out without tipping?

Madam,
Thank you for the link; I am borrowing the logo and will proudly display it on my site. As I commented on that site,
“Being unlinked and unnoticed is at once an education and an embittering experience; I have tried all kinds of mantras, potions, curses, methodologies, and elixirs to no avail.
“Hell, I have even followed the questionable regimen of that charlatan, John Stacy McCain, in the vain hope of getting a million hits. What a crap sandwich that was! I linked that guy, fawned over him, and otherwise behaved obsequiously in an effort to get him to breathe even a syllable about The War Planner.Crap.
I did not nor will I hit the tip jar, however.
However, as one garners from my tone, I am entering the green phase of my relationship with “T.O.M.” and — by following one of his rules — have decided to pick a fight with him. Hey, nothing else works.
Oh, seriously, only one thing fell out of this: I stumbled on and thoroughly enjoy Little Miss Attila. well, two, I guess. Your blog (unlinked or otherwise) looks like a keeper.”
I said that over there and mean it over here.
Sincerely,
William, The War Planner

Unfortunately, the old “Petersen” magazines have been moved around too much for anyone to pay too much attention to the heritage–by doing such things as getting old articles online. For some reason its getting worse, rather than better. The stuff I used to write in the 1990s and early 2000s used to at least be searchable; now that only thing that pops up is a series of product reviews I did when I was subbing over there a year and half ago, before they all packed up and moved to Peoria.
I could probably run an excerpt here and there. As you can imagine, I was the one who tended to do “Shooting 101″ pieces. And “How to Get Your Wife into the Shooting Sports.” And “Getting Your First Firearm” (hint: it always started and ended with some sort of Ode to the Revolver!).

You are linked in my heart forever.

Miss Attila,
Thanks for the info..I do remember the Petersen magazines. Some ham radio stuff there. If you come across something, please do not hesitate to post it.
I love your blogging style; it seems like when a thought hits, it goes up. Kind of like e=intellectual tweeting.
But I sense I am coming between you and your significant other; I shall retire to the other room.

I can handle the truth. If I’m screwing you over by using google then I plan to find another way to get my bloggy fix.
