That's Shanna's Post

When you start to write a blog (I find myself resisting the social pressure to use “to blog” as a verb), you quickly find that, unless you are in a rarified and generally well-funded 1%, the people who read your blog will be your friends, co-workers, and family. Indeed, I would suggest that the best way to stimulate readership is by using your friends and family as viral marketing agents, getting them to send people to your blog for links and content, and hoping they tell two friends, and so on and so on. (This will explain why I begin to introduce more hard core porn into my other blog.)

Anyway, since the very first day of my Wiggles blog, Shanna has been stopping by. She even comments. And I don’t know Shanna in the real world (not unless “Shanna” is just the screen name that weird old guy in my building uses. But I’ve 99% ruled that possibility out.)

So Shanna, this post is humbly dedicated to you—- AWWW’s public.

By the way, the rest of you are probably wondering if this is the Shanna from Shanna’s Show. On the Disney Channel, often the Wiggles runs 25-minutes, and the half hour is filled out by a 5-minute vignette called Shanna’s Show. (Theme song: “My Name is Shanna, it rhymes with Banana”) If you Tivo Wiggles (OK, I’ll use Tivo as a verb) you get Shanna as well. We’ve seen dozens of them.

Anyhow, I have asked our Shanna if she is indeed that Shanna. She remains coy on the subject.
