Dante’s Opinion: Why do guys just look at a girl and nod with their buddy?

Sometimes, looking for questions is a pain if only because some people’s writing skills are…just terrible. I try to stay away from them because I want stuff you can understand. I always quote what they say so I never make adjustments especially sense I could end up changing the direction of the question. Just keep that in mind.

Anyway, this first question is pretty neat. Mira asks:

I noticed that these two guys i didnt know were looking and nodding at me but i didnt know what was happening so i kind of looked away

Daily Good Stuff 220

So, DALANEL set yet another viewing record yesterday. November is ready to actually double July, my previous best month. This is simply great. Still no idea what happened. So, I’m down to two scenarios: The blog finally “snapped” and is now taking a new step into greatness. Or, this is just a little phase. We shall see. That’s why I wanted to wait a week. See if this is real.

Anyway, on to the post.

How good and pleasant it is when brothers live together in unity! Psalm 133:1

The most melancholy thing about human nature, is, that a man may guide others into the path of salvation, without walking in it himself; that he may be a pilot, and yet a castaway. Augustus William Hare and Julius Charles Hare

If you seen at least the original Willy Wonka movie, you’ll love this. Maybe.

Wednesday Word: Passion Changes Everything

Welcome to the first post of the long overdue weekly segment: Wednesday Word. In case you don’t know, Wednesday Word will normally go a little something like this: A short sermon, typically less than 10 minutes, could be longer but rarely over 30 minutes, and then some Dante commentary. As I’ve said before, I’m no pastor or something. You don’t have to be to know the Word of God. Here’s today’s video:

November 2013 is Already Best Month In Blog History

The updates keep coming in. Today, November 2013 has passed July 2013 for most views. We’re not even half way through the month yet. Also, we’re on the verge of breaking the daily view record for the third day in a row.

I am absolutely elated and, quite honestly, don’t know how this is happening. I am scared to change anything because I don’t want to ruin any flow. Kinda ironically, I already labeled this month as a month of changes. Did the changes I made spur this boost in viewing? Should I make more changes? Ugh! If it ain’t broken, don’t fix it, right? Then again, this blog is still mediocre in terms of “successful blogs” so I still have work to do.

Again, thank you all for the support. As this blog keeps growing, hopefully it takes notice to bigger blogs as well as my “competition” the big news channels of our time like NBC, FOX, ABC, and the like. Like I’ve been saying, I feel like they produce too much “negative” news like shootings, thefts, wars, and more. And again, it’s important to know what’s going on. It’s just, that’s not all that’s going on.

With the growing support, this means that, yes, we as a people do value different tastes in our…uh…news juice… And, hopefully one day, we’ll see a lot more positive news and maybe even a station dedicated to shining light to the good that’s going on in the world. If there is one, I haven’t found it yet. I’m talking USA here, I don’t know about the rest of the world.

We need that. Wouldn’t you agree?

DALANEL Hits 800; Has Record Views

So, remember yesterday when I told you DALANEL had record views on Monday? Well, Tuesday was even better. Unlike recent record views, this was more of a milestone for DALANEL. If this type of viewing holds up, DALANEL has just taken a step in the right direction of being a “successful blog”.

And it’s all thanks to you. Thanks for you if you follow me or if you’ve visited in the past couple of days. I’m writing this day down as this could be a big milestone for the blog.

This also proves that people do value a positive experience. The things I present here, I knew it was what I was meant to do. And, in the beginning, things were really slow. I’d go days without a visit. Over time, well, I’ve already mentioned this time and time again, the views picked up.

I remember reading stories about this moment. They would say “views would be poor until, one day, it just suddenly picked up”. I get it now. This was a complete surprise.
