45,000 Hits in One Day

Two years ago I wrote an article, "How Propaganda Works," for The Libertarian Enterprise. I posted it on my site, The Bob Circus, and have probably gotten about 500 hits on it.

Someone found the article and posted it at Digg.com and Reddit.com. Next thing I know, within one day the counter on my site had shot up to 45,000, and right now stands at a little less than 50,000. I've received several emails, including ones from Greece and Australia.

I have no idea what caused this. An article I wrote two years ago -- and now it's all over the Internet.

This is why we banned politics. Let's hope they don't find the pit bull stuff.

I'm getting over a thousand hits a day. It's almost at 52,000 now.

Probably the pit bullers only read FreeRepublic, not anything intellectual.

I read the Bob Circus regularly. You splains things bettern' Mrs. Smiff who taught me how to multiply in the second grade.
