Hi there
Contrary to recent rumors, I am alive, and my short blog absence has had nothing to do with the movie "Nacho Libre."
And while I'm not 100% back to blogging just yet, I did want to note two things:
1) StatCounter shows that my hit and visitor counts have been HIGHER than normal over the past 5 days. I'm no statistician, but I think that means you guys like it better when I'm not around.
2) StatCounter also shows that omarphillips.net is approaching 50,000 non-Omar hits! So keep an eye on the counter on the sidebar. My legal team hasn't ironed out the details yet, but there may be something in it for you* (there have to be conditions, as I don't want the guy searching for "gelatinous baby poop" to win something).
Carry on.
---
* Note that the "Cate Clause"** is in effect for any contest related to the 50,000th hit.
** The "Cate Clause" states that if, when within 100 hits of the milestone number, you register more than 5 consecutive hits, you are disqualified.

I think this so-called "Cate Clause" totally SUCKS.

Do you have any idea how hard I worked on some of those rumors? Time was, a man could start a good rumor and not have it dispelled within just a few days. Times sure have changed… That said, I’m not bragging, nor am I trying to intimidate anyone, but I’m page loader # 49426… I’ll let you all digest that for a bit and think about what that means for the rest of you…

Look. Gelatinous baby poop matters to a lot of people. I happen to spend a good deal of each day discussing gelatinous baby poop with people who seem to really, really want details on the topic.
And no amount of denial will quell the Nacho Libre story...

It's not that we like it better when you don't post, it's that we are all obsessively checking to see if you've posted yet. Now if you created an RSS feed for omarphilips.net . . . .
