Yes, with this post, I have hit that mythical mark: post #200 on this blog!

And I am nearing 18,000 page views, with nearly 500 comments, which feels like a coming of age of sorts!

So I am reflecting on which are my favorite posts, identifying which are the most popular posts, and wondering which are readers’ most memorable posts.

Post your answers below! Leave a link! The answers will be posted on a page entitled “favorites;” the page is already up if you want to put your comments there.

Thanks for stopping by!

    The pancakes were yummy. I really liked those two series of artblogging, the drug one which went from inside your head to outside the blog, oh and that one from that series where the monster came to life, and the series before that, what was that one about, I remember it but I can’t remember. If I had to pick one I pick the monster one. I’ll see if I can find it.

    Oh and that mp3 which is brilliantly produced with the wierdly sexy poem about wanting to be a man. That was cool.

    thanks, Paul, for participating with your favs!

    i think on your blog you actually have a few pages along the top with some of your strongest/favoritist work, yes?

    Yes, kinda. The pages across the top form a kind of manifesto, a general positioning of my work in a braoder historical tradition, he says trying hard not to sound like a wanker but failing. I saw a bottle of the new Grange in the bottle shop (liqour store) yesterday, I think it is ’03 vintage, $490.oo Aus. Woohoo, I’ll have ten.

    yes that’s what it seems like…plus the titles in and of themselves serve that purpose

    save one of those bottles for me!! they must pay poets significantly better down under than here, eh? it’s been rare for me to buy wine in the double digits…the low double digits! only had triple digit wine on someone else’s dime in a restaurant

    Although your blog is new to me, my favorite thing I’ve read is “I Want to Be that Man.” The intensity, the detail, the repetition — this is a fantastic poem, especially when you listen to it. I love the way it addresses this fundamental desire to inhabit that’s at the core of all great poems.
