The WordPress.com stats helper monkeys prepared a 2012 annual report for this blog and Monkeys don’t lie.

Butterfly fish swimming in the nude.
FISH RULE! As a matter of fact EVERY year since 2010 my top post is about FISH. FISH! Who woulda guessed?! It doesn’t surprise me that Christine Lagarde post got a lot of hits. After all, I did have “nude” in the title.
Here’s an excerpt from the Monkey Report (with edits by me):
“4,329 films were submitted to the 2012 Cannes Film Festival. This blog
Christine Lagarde fully clothed as she always is in public
had 35,000 views in 2012. If each view were a film, this blog would power 8 FISH Film Festivals.” And if each view was a fish lover who had pet fish that’s 35,000 aquarium (not counting Koi ponds), home to an average of 10 fish per aquarium which equals 350,000 fish who are dearly loved.
Next year I’m thinking about writing a post “Christine LaGuard eats nude fish to celebrate Dwali” and watch the views go through the roof!
Click here to see the complete report and proof of how important fish, Dwali and nudity are to the blogging community (which includes YOU, my friend)!!!
P.S. Alas, the 607 views in one day included about 500 spammers . . .
You are shameless! Did I happen to mention that my post “Calling Eppiglottitis A Real Bitch Is A Vast Understatement” was my most popular post since the same time. and yes, I KNOW you WON. I’ve heard about for YEARS. I promised my ENT that I would print the Eppiglottitis post for him because he wanted to read it. Who knows maybe I will be in the new hippie medical journal. Love you, no mater how many hits you get. Happy Happy. Peachy Keen Jr.

You desperately need lessons in shamelessness:
1. Never admit defeat . .. even if you are losing. Politicians are shameless pros at this.
2. Never use the word “maybe” as in “maybe I will be in the new hippie medical journal”. Always use the word “when” as in “when I am president, senator et al . . .
3. Always refer to those who have, in fact, defeated you as “honorable”, never “shameless”. You don’t want your public to think you are a sore loser, even if they are.
and last but certainly not least:
4. Put your “Calling Eppiglottitis A Real Bitch Is A Vast Understatement” link up on your comments so people will click on it. Lots of other shameless people have done that on this blog!
Shamelessly yours,

Laurie,
“Calling Eppiglottitis A Real Bitch Is A Vast Understatement” Put your link to THIS post in your comment. (I couldn’t find it on your blog because your blog doesn’t have a “search box”, or I would have done it for you) Then people who read the comments will click on your post to see what it’s about!
