What can I say ? It is a such a pleasure to see the results of my hard work. I mean, I can almost see the looks of envy on the faces of my fellow bloggers…. ooh, I so wish my blog were ranked at 207 in the prestigious Wikio science blog rankings….
Now, it would have been nice if they had addressed me by my name, but, come on, it is 2010, we do not really have time for that formal crap anymore, do we… and… is it just my impression or, what they are really telling me is that mine is the 207th blog of whose existence they have become aware ?
Well, it is OK, let’s not get all worked up over small details, the fact is, I am now officially ranked, and that, my friends, is no small feat.
Time for celebrations, methink. Now, the badge… eh, I don’t know about that.

Congratulations, Massimo! Surely it’s only a matter of time before you can give up this theoretical physics thing and be a professional blogger, raking in thousands of dollars a week from your sofa.

Now that you’re going to be making the big bucks, are you going to throw us a party to celebrate? I’m feeling the need for some booze….

Awe, c’mon now SM, Chicago was the better team, the Canucks still had a great season — I know, coming from an Oiler fan this does not mean much…

Woot! Definitely a good excuse for a party. Congrats!
I wonder if I’ll ever make the list…but I suppose I need to have more than 3 readers, first. :-)

Cherish, something tells me that the number of readers is really not the criterion for inclusion in those, um, highly distinguished rankings. Notice how the reward consists of advertising for free someone else’s web site…

LOL. You’ve been contacted by the “Who’s Who” or the J. Poult. Sci. of the Web!
May 12, 2010 at 1:49 pm |
You think ? ;-)
May 12, 2010 at 3:02 pm |
Now, what is wrong with J. Poult. Sci. ?

Nah, it’s free advertisement for someone else’s web site…
