ann of the shampoo bag — When I post at night, then go off to bed, I’m greeted with a screenful of hilarious comments in the morning. I cannot think of a better way to start my day than in my own blog.

The Junk Drawer is always my first stop after checking my emails. I love reading everyone’s comments. There is always gut-busting material.

DroseyMonkey — Now watch it grow! (Although you already have a large audience, it’ll be nice to see the numbers).

DrowseyMonkey — If you have a feed, go to Feedburner.com and click on your feed. It’ll show you how many people are subscribed and how it is they get your feed. If you don’t have a feed, set one up there and you can follow it. Poke around the site. You’ll get all the help you need there. It’s easy.

Very cool...but I didn't know I could tell how many people are subscribed. How can I tell that? And yes, it is like a party here! lol DrowseyMonkey's last blog post..Ready for a Bedtime Story?

Momo Fali — Hey, I meant to send my congratulations for making it on AllTop.com. Way to go!

Rattln Along — Google Analytics is perhaps all you need.

Lee — You know I want you as my personal photographer. Now all I need is a personal chef. Anyone?

Carol — A few people have admonished me for making them blow something out their noses. It’s the highest honor I could achieve as a writer.

Marlene — Oh, that’s so nice! Thank you! Thank you! “Mmmm…cake” is right. Great. Now I want cake.

Bruce — I’m thinking of changing the blog’s name to The Junk Drawer with a Side of Bruce. What da ya think?

I don't read the comments....I MAKE the comments, which is much better than just reading them......and a subscription by me is worth at least 2 normal subscriptions....that is how good I am. Seriously. You are soooo damn lucky. Bruce's last blog post..The Dip-Shit - Lesson #12

Congratulations, Kathy !!! You do have a way with words, and I’m glad it’s a funny way. Brightens up my day. I don’t subscribe either. I’d rather pop in to see if you’ve got anything new written and then be pleasantly surprised when I find a new story. And kudos to all your commenters – they’re the icing on this cake. (mmmm cake)

We are afunny lot — but “snort something out your nose”
on that one I bow to you, the master of quips.

Congrats on the milestone. I’m ecstatic when I get more than 10 comments on a post. And here you consistently get 30. I bow to the master.

Seriously, you do a great job and it’s no wonder you have such a loyal following. When you do your book tour I get to come along as official photography, don’t I?

Mizmell — By all means, get toasted! Anyone bring champagne?

FerdC — Me too! And I’m hoping you’ll stick with me for the next hundred. Imagine that party!

Mr. Grudge — I think you’re missing your calling as a humor writer. Care to start a second blog? I’ll be your first subscriber. Thanks for the laughs!

Forest Parks — Gosh, I barely remember what I did in the beginning as far as directories go. There are some other humor directories in existence, but Humor-Blogs.com is the best of the bunch. I used to be involved with MyBlogLog.com, which is decent. I like BlogCatalog because it’s not all junked up with crap blogs for the most part. Search for directories in your niche, but poke around a while first to get a sense of who belongs there. And make sure you use good tracking software to see where you’re getting good traffic from (I use Clicky).

Babs (beetle) — Feedburner statistics will fluctuate day to day. I was at 103 for the first time yesterday, but it may go up or down from there a little in the next week.

Libertine — That’s so interesting about your comments varying from place to place. You’re right about having to make it easy for people to follow comments. Every little bit helps. I like BC for finding new blogs in my niche. The traffic isn’t what I’ve hoped, but it does lead me to others in my topic and by visiting those blogs, I’ve been able to gain new readers. Commenting on others’ blogs is a necessity.

Harris Bloom — Offer free tickets to your stand-up shows for being random commenter number whatever. I plan to see your show if you’re in my area. I still can’t believe you were in Lancaster and didn’t swing by to see me on the way back to NYC. What’s wrong with you?

BabaBooey — That’s my goal! I want everyone to feel like Norm on Cheers when they drop into the drawer. BabaBooey!

Lori — I don’t know how I blogged so long without you. I knew there was something I was missing!

Memarie Lane — Congratulations for nearing 100. Only a matter of time. Hey, have a party when you get there and be sure to invite us all!
