Here are some odds and ends:

1) We are using a new web tracking mechanism. Our old one told us stuff like, “You have 1,700 hits in February,” but gave us no insight as to unique users. That is, it could just be that Tracy and I were reloading the page hundreds of times and not writing anything interesting enough for people to read. Since we started tracking on Friday, we have had visitors from 47 unique IP addresses. This is more than enough of a readership to make the blog worthwhile. I’ll post more data on this after a week or two.

2) The only person respond with Trivia Memories was Kim Jordan, our ace list-server-owner. She recalled that “My personal favorite was ‘Supplicants of Gozer.’ I was also a member of ‘Well, yes!’ freshman year.”

3) The discussion of Animal House led to a flurry of e-mail among Brooks Foehl, Bill Pike and Jonathon Hollenberg on the topic of the “D-Day” character. Recall that Jonathan’s original quote was: “Unavailable. Sounds a little like Daniel D. Day’s report card in Animal House.” Alas, your faithful blogger, after much searching, failed to find the precise dialogue, although Bill Pike is clearly correct in claiming that the character’s full name was “Daniel Simpson Day.” The best I could do was this picture.

D-Day is in the lower left. Surely someone can give us the correct facts on this one . . .
