This is kind of weird

Traffic is very solid today, which lately is not kind of weird, but half of it is coming from Latvia, which is. Latvia has been an occasional Eff You visitor, but not a leader. Today alone, the number of hits from Latvia has nearly doubled and Latvia has vaulted into the Top 10 all-time at the No. 9 spot. Maybe somewhere in a recent post I inadvertently used the Latvian word for hot naked chicks and I'm getting lots of horny young Latvian men looking for pr0n. Or maybe it's just spambots.  I will never understand the logic of search engines.

Russians on the move!

No, they're not invading Ukraine. Russia has surged past Sweden to take over the No. 2 spot on the page-views origin list. From the day Eff You started, Sweden held the runner-up slot. Until recently, its lead seemed insurmountable. No more. Sorry Sweden, but by all means keep coming by.

Maybe Putin's a fan

Russia is rapidly overtaking Sweden for the number two spot on the "Country of Origin" list for traffic. Desperate to learn the ways of Temp Town, apparently, the Russians have cut Sweden's lead to less than 50. Just a few weeks ago, it was more than 100. Come on, Swedes, show some pride!

On another note, Ukraine has totally bumped Romania out of the top 10, leapfrogging Brazil to take the No. 9 position. Latvia clings to No. 8, the third former (reluctant) member of the old Soviet Union in the Top 10. Speaking of former SSRs, Georgia stubbornly refuses to visit. Don't know why they're so obstinate.

I hear they have a great airline

United Arab Emirates checked in. They spend a lot of money on weird shit and tall buildings, and people tell me that Emirates Air Lines is a great way to fly if you want to go to an oil-rich desert with no alcohol. Other than that, no worries. Welcome, nonetheless.

China, suckaz!

Got me some China on the line! First visitor to make it through the Bamboo Curtain -- probably chasing the two visitors we had this week from Taiwan.
