It is time once again to show my appreciation for those that contribute to this site by showing their interest and expressing their opinions.
It is because of your interaction and feedback that I continue to write this blog. I reached a single day traffic peak of 18,777 visitors (98.9% new), thanks to StumbleUpon and Digg. Of course things have settled down but I still receive several hundred to a couple thousand visitors a day.
Pretty good stats considering this is a personal blog that doesn’t cover any particular topics (i.e., making money online) nor does it fill a specific niche.
My Technorati ranking has climbed to 13,792 with an authority of 303. Although I’m far from the A-list of blogs, I’m comfortably within the B-list fold 
Now, without further ado, I’d like to send my monthly link-love to the top 5 commentators for the month of July, 2007.
- First up is Derek Semmler, he juggles his role as super dad/husband and managing two sites and a job with apparent ease. He’s one of those people you just love to hate but can’t find any good reason to. Damn you Derek for being such a nice guy! Your constant friendly comments and insightful, civilized opinions have no place in my my world
- Next up is Bob Buskirk, this bastard just came back from a vacation in Florida. He had to rub it in by taking his girlfriend Ashley. Geez, when was the last time I took a vacation? 2002 I believe, and I went with another dude
- We have a three-way tie for third place. These spooning monkeys sound like a bad joke. I can’t say Thomas‘ last name out loud without spitting, don’t even get me started on the Dutch jokes (although they do make great Pannekoeks). You’d expect Gdog to be some white dude who’s a poor excuse for a rapper, but he’s actually a Chinese guy who’s a poor excuse for a Korean. And Derrich, oooh, you know you’re an asshole when you just have to spell your name differently. It’s just like guys who spell “Jeff” with a “G” like “Geoff”. You don’t see me spelling my name “Lio” do you?
And there you have it folks. Love to hate you all but my angst is limited . . . until next month

I can certainly stop being friendly and insightful if you think it will help! Thanks for the link love!
Wow. I would have never came up with that many more people to visit a website because it was linked to another website.
You’re hilarious dude…you should consider changing your name to Lio Chang: Local Bastard!
You should try Leyoh. That might be cooler than Leo. Just sayin.

Oh yeah! I believe Derek Semmler is sending over some shirts for me, I’ll make sure to send them to you to post on your site
I’ll hook you up with a flippingrich shirt as well as the others. Should be mailed out tomorrow.
I meant for your hot friends
Let’s talk more about those.
oh, I see, it’s ALL about my hot friends now
What else is there, lol
Where is Semmler on this issue?
Not that I need to ask but…
Lettin’ his kids beat him at mini golf.
haha. it wont be long and my kids will kick my ass too
Semmler, the only one of you who spells “Derek” properly, probably let his wife out of the kitchen again
Derrich, should we take this?
No way!
Lol, I’ve been trying to stay away until Leo turns this blog over to all the babes he seems to know.
[…] Geez! Where has the summer gone? It’s already September and it feels like I never got to experience summer. While everybody’s been going on vacations I’ve been busy working. But I digress, this post wasn’t meant to be a pity party, this post is meant to show my appreciation to those that continue to support this site by visiting and sharing their thoughts. […]
