Now I have been doing this blog for a little over a year and a half. I get a modest amount of views, but any number is really fine with me. I do this because I love doing and until my views go down to zero I will still be doing it.
However, yesterday, I hit a true milestone. While poking around the internet, I found out that an image from my blog was the very first image to show in google images when you googled the word "Hillbilly":
The first image displayed is a picture I took of Alabama Folk artist Butch Anthony.
While I thought this was awesome, I was a little worried that Mr. Anthony may not like being the poster boy for hillbillies.
And look at the company he keeps. A culturally sensitive parade of images.
Its good to see Hillbilly Jim represented.................
Sadly, my reign as Hillbilly image King has come to an abrupt end. When I checked back today the number one spot had been replaced with these nice respectable Hillbillies.
Oh well, at least I can take pride that my page comes up #5 on google when you search for "Raccoon Penis Bone"
I'm somebody, ma!
