Fun with My Site Meter

Every once in a while I like to check on my site meter and see what brought people here. Mostly it is fellow garden bloggers and family members. Occasionally, someone gets here through a google search looking for some weird stuff for example.

Angel's trumpet looking sad - Don't be sad angels trumpet.

Going to the poor farm - No we aren't. Not yet anyway.

Laws of gardening - You are at the wrong site. I have been known to attract the attention of law enforcement in this garden.

The truth about oregano - Wow, I didn't know that oregano had a dark side and family secretes.

The Winner Is.....

What oak tree has hollow balls?

hahahahaha.

  2. Those searches are funny. I thought you were going to talk about the sitemeter migration issues. I sure am glad they brought it back.

  3. LMAO, I didn't know an oak tree had balls! Acorns, yes; balls, no. I didn't know you could find out that much info. Do you have a free one or do you pay for that much info? I just figured out how to install one last Sunday, I am trying out 2 free ones, but I don't know what info either one will give me. Maybe I should check!

  6. Hi ofb, sometimes it feels like that around here too, poor, but not so much the farm.

    Hi tina, I did miss it while it was down.

    Nola, just go to the dashboard on your site and there should be some instructions on site meters. Mine is free.

    Hi Cindy, The meters usually reveal something funny or just weird:)

    Hi James, just make it over 100 in the shade and aunts will be detered

  10. Hollow Balls--funniest thing I've heard lately. I know what they were looking for. They wanted to know what the fruit of the Sycamore of Sweet Gum Trees. They fall all over the place here. We have so many oak trees that they think it comes from those.
