It's the BIG TWO
Category: No Category
I never would have though I would stick to something for so long. But I missed my first birthday and discovered that today is Salty Popcorn's second birthday. It has been a joyous ride.
I have met many many friends and written so so so many words. Official stats are:
392 Post(s) on this blog since March 26th 2008
2501 Comment(s) on this blog since March 26th 2008
My most popular Post was not even about films - it was I Reached One of My Goals on Orble - which was to make it into the top 20 writers list - something that my sites have just managed to hang onto since that article.
There are so many people on Orble to thank - Morgan firstly as she welcomed me to the community with open arms, then there are the usual suspects, Wilson, MNG, Janet Collins, Helen Rendell, PMC, John Doe, Katyzzzzzzzzz, Bryn, Cheryl (miss u), Peter Yang. There are also so many I have forgotten at this ridiculous hour of the morning but it is not personal - thanks for your Orble support.
Two special people get a big thanks - My Ma - who's birthday it is on the 26th March which is today in the US and yesterday in Oz - and also Sammy, who's birthday it is today in Oz. Sammy was the first person to ever read and comment on Salty Popcorn and he still claims he helped set the site up with that first comment
Also thanks to Dave and Sean who have contributed some articles over the years.
Orble has taught me that I can stick at things, especially if I love them - so get ready kids - there are thousands more articles to get too - someone has to knock that Charles fellow off the number one writers spot. Next goal - regular spot in top 10 writers of Orble.
Have a great day!!

24 months and going strong...I'm going to have to get a little of that motivation going for my sadly neglected site.
Happy Orble B'Day

What I've always liked about this blog, Jason, is that it reinforces a fundamental truth that is being slowly suffocated by the piously opinionated.
And that is that popcorn should never be served without salt.

I rarely meet anyone ( only once I think) who has the same birthday as mine, but I could not be in better company.
Hip hip hooray!

Mum - my pleasure and glad you are now net savvy with a faster net connection than me. Who'd have thought you evolved to the computer age in those two years
Thanks Tracy - day was long and tiring but fun none the less.
Hahahaha Chris - thanks for the laugh - I still get weirded out by caramel and sweet U.S. popcorn. They don't believe in the salty kind, all about sweet.
Katyzzz, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU, HAPPY BIRTHDAY DEAR KATYZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ (hold the note people)ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ ZZZZZZ, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU
Hope you had a great day!! This week sees three of my closest family and friends all celebrating, it makes me poor every year
Thanks heaps WFF - patience, dedication and the will to outlive the next guy - the secret of blogging hahahahaha.

MNG - very kind of you - what's with the horses head? Is it too early and my brain is missing something? LOL
Thanks TWPY!!
Toni - thanks a bunch!! I tried writing a comment on one of your articles the other day and it told me it wasn't published yet?? Very odd - it was something about running out of time.
Have a great day ladies and gents. Hugs

Thanks Stalker Michaelie - you're always a nice stalker and much preferable to the freak that found all my personal details on Facebook and who now calls me about 5 times a week - she is a freak, but I do like the attention
Thanks everyone for your kind words - it is definately enough inspiration to keep on trucking. Have a great day!!

You have not only passed the endurance test but you have developed your blog into one that so many of us want to read. That is the whole point after all.
Congratulations on those two counts.
