Clarifying some "star" blogger issues

There were several questions and comments about Tuesday's post on Being a Star Blogger that need clarification:

Alice writes: I certainly don't want to swell your head even more... but my Bloglines account says that there are 346 subscribers to your feed.
If one is subscribed to Bloglines as an atom.xml feed, there are now 348 bloggers subscribed to the Blue Skunk. If one is subscribed at an rss feed, there are now 172 subscribers. Too late, my head has now taken on the proportions of a Macy's Parade balloon. I'm going to add them together for a total of over 500! I believe such numbers allow me to:

• Date Nicole Kidman.
• Adopt small children from the third world. I'm thinking some place in rural Wisconsin.
  
• Throw things at motel clerks when I don't get enough little bars of soap in my room.
  
• Possibly get an earring (with the LWW's permission, of course).

Bud asks: Can I be the Paris to your Britney? I'll never stab you in the back or anything.

I told him it was OK, so long as I still get dibs on the really, really cute shoes.

Graham observes: "School Library Journal's 'Sexist Male Librarian of the Year'" ...or do you mean Sexiest?

A Freudian typo?. No, Graham, any chance of me winning would be in the "sexist" not "sexiest" category. Thanks for the chance to clarify.

John writes: i m in ur feedz msn with ur stats.

John has been bought off with a new spell to fight orcs in World of Warcraft. I have also alerted the FBI about this guy.

Hope this puts all your questions to rest. For ongoing news, watch the Enquirer.
