Paranoia(?)

We have been playing with a tool for our blog called "Sitemeter" - it lets us see who has been on our blog's pages (yes, we know who you are, or at least where you live.....).

Elana and started to browse through the list of visitors that have come to our blog, and wouldn't you know it, but it seems like this person, from Kfar Kasem, keeps coming to our website. For those that don't know what Kfar Qasem is, it is an arab village in israel with a history.

At any rate, we started to get a little freaked out. I mean, why would some arab guy from around the corner from us want to keep coming to our blog. Isn't that a little weird?

So as we looked down our list of visitors, we noticed that this person came to our website all the time. Pretty freaky.......and then, Sitemeter has a feature that you can see who is on your website/blog at that specific moment. And to our horror, this person was on!!!

We started looking at each other, a bit scared, talking about how we have to take down all of our pictures, make sure we have no identifiable information on the website, etc. We were freaked out.

Then, it actually dawned on us. This mystery person from Kfar Qasem was......us. Our IP must get detected as going through Kfar Qasem for some reason. No strange guy sharpening a knife, looking at our pictures. Just plain, old, boring, us.

I suppose that we should really be taking it easier.

While I am on the topic of violence and paranoia - it was just announced that the Bloods (gang) are going to be having an initiation in the area that we lived in Baltimore. They will be hitting a car, and then assaulting the driver that comes out - some sort of gang initiation.

Yeah, probably should not be reading anything into THIS story about living in a dangerous place or anything.....nah.
