posts_per_day_(by_month)

Haven’t posted my monthly stats in a while. In fact, I haven’t really looked at my traffic stats since I moved to Minneapolis. Took a look at them yesterday, and they were better than I thought seeing as I haven’t posted much lately. The Great Wahl has been around for a full twelve months. [...]

Because I needed another excuse to promote The (FREE!) Great Wahl Bracket Challenge where you can win a Great Wahl mug, I am posting my winning (and I only fill out on each year) bracket for the world to copy.

I won a big Baltimore bracket pool in 2008 because there were a decent [...]

90-Something

fitnessmilestones_90

So it was exactly 90 days ago I crossed the 80-pound threshold in My Fitness Project, but I finally hit the 90-pound mark.

That means that this blog has to expand it’s horizons and try provide you with other unqiue, entertaining content for the next six months.

Edge of Darkness

twitter-addicts-1

(Quick Editorial Note: Edge of Darkness with Mel Gibson is a decent late winter excuse to go to the movies. It also makes a convenient blog post title when commenting about selling your soul to the evils of technology).

I’ve gone to the dark side. In the past, I have hated Twitter. I [...]

iPhone Optimized

It’s always bugged me that The Great Wahl would look weird on the iPhone vs. your normal computer browser. It’ll probably look wonderful on the new, wonderful iPad, but for those on the go, you can now check your favorite blog w/ ease. It should also load much, much faster.

A Confederate Christmas

This isn't my brother's place. This is just what I imagine the rest of Arkansas is like over the holidays.

This isn’t my brother’s place. This is just what I imagine the rest of Arkansas is like over the holidays.

I’ve never been to Arkansas. But that’s where my brother and his family live. So that’s where I’m going for Christmas this year.
