I just got a letter from WordPress about my blogging activities. As I suspected, food and sex drive the readership, followed by some tech and physiology. I know now why Esquire obsesses about food, sex, and gadgets. We are driven by the simple needs indeed. I am humbled by my readers’ interest in my scribblings. Happy new year to all.

The stats helper monkeys at WordPress.com mulled over how this blog did in 2010, and here’s a high level summary of its overall blog health:

The Blog-Health-o-Meter™ reads Wow.
