30,000 Year Plan, Part IV

So while I was away, the 30,000 year plan proceeded uninterrupted. Three bits of news about it:

1. My Patriots blog became more famous in two ways. First, it was listed among the top 100 for the keywords "nfl standings." Might not seem like much, but it squeaked past Pro Football Weekly's web page into 76th place, and I love that magazine.

2. And second, someone named marosia posted a SPAM/Advertisement in the comments section of a post. It's a little strange that someone used my blog to advertise a place to buy Patriots tickets, but somehow I think that makes me slightly more famous than I was before.

3. Additionally I had a letter published in the Boston Globe last week. Granted it wasn't about anything earth-shattering; but long after I'm gone it will remain as a reminder that I existed. And getting a letter in the paper certainly can't *hurt* the 30,000 year plan. If anyone remembers what a newspaper is :)

So as the plan proceeds, take note Angelina Jolie -- 29,991 more years and I'll be as famous as you!

That's all for now. Check back this weekend for posts about Avatar and James Cameron in the run up to the Oscars telecast on Sunday.
