What DOES my Traffic Say About Me?

sure I cut off Internet Explorer, no one
likes them anyways.
     Now, I wouldn't call myself a particularly vain person, but I am actually curious as to where the traffic that views my site comes from. Not that it really matters, or that it is a popularity contest, or that it makes me feel better about myself based on the traffic arriving at my site; it's just plain curiosity.

     So, when I looked at the traffic that my site received over its [two] lifetimes, I've come to slowly realize that apparently: 1.  while biased as I am against Apple, quite a bit of traffic appears to come from them. 2.  The operating system section looks like a peace-sign. I'm not quite sure what to make of that second one, but it has to be good...right?

SO WHAT DOES IT SAY?

I prefer to think about these graphs as a, "Thanksgiving dinner at a dysfunctional family's house." Where big brother Windows  and Macintosh (who have a long standing grudge against each other) are at the table keeping the little siblings:  Android, iPhone, and Linux; away from the adult-table. All of this while cousin Firefox is being eyed suspiciously because he's waving a lighter at the frilly lace table runner by his brothers: IE, Chrome, and Safari crack their knuckles and try to surround him.

In all, I am starting to think that I have an over-active imagination, but that I have a well-rounded supply of viewers even though I'm a little heavy on the big-boys. All I have to say is "Thank you readers" for making my information gathering more fun.

So now the question is:

WHAT DOES YOUR TRAFFIC SAY ABOUT YOU?

Feel free to take a look at your traffic and make your own stories and send them to your friends, or to me. I'm sure we can all have fun with it.

Bar-B-Que Pepperoni Pizza


**update** Go ahead and use this idea for the Superbowl, I'm sure everyone will love the idea! Chances are that you won't be able to keep these tasty single serving pizzas around long enough to last the whole game. **update**


Don't be alarmed, this food is not going to be "Instagrammed" in any way, it is, blogged (of course) so quit judging me. This is just what everyone needs to make when they are 1.  in the mood for pizza, and 2.  not wanting to order pizza, 3. Lazy, but not too lazy.

It's sooooo good that even a toddler will love it. No, seriously, I'll show you a picture later.


You'll Need:

1.  A Package of Tortillas (1 or 2 for the pizza)

2.  Bar-B-Que Sauce (any brand)

3.  Cheese

4.  Optional:  Pepperoni

5.  Oven

6.  Hunger







Step 1:  preheat to 350 degrees











Step 2:  Add Bar-B-Que to the Tortilla













Step 3:  Add cheese











Step 4:  Add Toppings













Optional:  Add more cheese











Optional:  Add another Tortilla












Step 5:  set timer for 5 mins, believe me this is more than enough time...tortillas are thin.











Step 6:  Check to make sure cheese is melted and tortillas are not burned. Ready to eat.











My daughter wondering why I'm taking pictures of her eating our pizza.







There you have it folks, in about 10 minutes you could have a tasty single serving pizza for about a dollar worth of ingredients. Enjoy.
