Celebrate with us for a moment. You can help us celebrate our ginormous flow of traffic by linking to this post and sending a trackback, thus increasing our traffic even more! In return, we'll issue a fatwa against your infidel butt, you'll get a link in return, and maybe you'll get a hit or two of your own. But make sure it's a
post. Okay, who are we kidding, there are no
out there......
Not bad for a Star Wars/South Park themed blog written by a fictional character from a popular syndicated cartoon that started out with a goal of getting 100 hits a day 18 months ago and who's content was deemed so offensively pro-American that Google News kicked us off. The day Google banned us was the day I thought our run with good luck was over. This site, I thought, would go the way of hundreds of thousands of others and be forgotten. I was wrong.
The site was originally intented to simply be a place to poke fun at our enemies and their apologists on the Left. It still is. It turns out, though, that I'm not as funny as I thought. Besides, even I need to take the occasional break from internet porn and stock quotes, so I kept on blogging. The posts that resonate the most with readers tend to be my independent reporting of jihadi activities on the internet and screeds against the hardcore Leftist media. We've also become an outpost of hope for families of American hostages in Iraq. I can live with that.
Thank you, one and all. Thank you regular readers. Thank you regular commenters. Thank you guest posters and co-conspirators. Thank you to linkers, big and small. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
We may not be the best written blog. We may not be the hardest working bloggers. We may not even be that good. We're not even sure why anybody pays us any attention. Whatever it is that keeps you coming back to My Pet Jawa--aka, The Jawa Report--we'll try to keep doing it. We'll do it bigger, longer, and uncut. Now if we could only figure out what it is.

I only do my part to fly-swat the moonbats that come in attracted to the light.

Now that we all know Oyster is a woman, that comment seems much less creepy than it would have a week ago.

It's been the most thought inducing, frustrating, exciting, fun, horrid, best 18 months ever. Thanks Rusty for spilling yourself all over the internet. I can't say it's been good for my BP but it is and has been and I hope will be a fun ride for a long time. It's like a never ending class you don't have to pay for.

hey, you know how it is, Rusty....All Knowledge is Power...its what i believe in...in this case its knowledge that gives us the power to prove the left how wrong they are and hopefully to get them to see the light

Rusty, you opened my eyes so much. I was a leftist liberal bastard before I started reading you. You and Patrik al-Kafir at Clarity and Resolve have given me a radically different view on politics and life in general. For that, I thank you.

I am still working on the who trackback thing. I am with Yahoo, and they don't have a mechanism in place for trackbacks. Any assistance is greatly appreciated as I am teaching myself how to build and operate my website.

Has it only been 18 months for Jawa? Seems like you've been around forever, Dr. R. May you be blessed with continued hits upon you and yours.

Tyler, wow--that's a huge compliment. Thanks.
kstumpf--go to haloscan.com . You can probably install their TB code in your page. It's not as good as real blogging software, but it helps.
Bubbe-thanks. Yup, a mere 18 months.
Psychiatrists--thank you.

Sweet. Now I can brag about how you and I combined for 2,029,000 total hits.
Thanks for the link!

All Right, All Right. Enough with the back slapping. We have to live with this guy.
I am appreciative for the opportunity to reject the liberal, disrespectful idiots who attack my country, my race, my politics,my government and its duly elected leaders. Too long has the pulpit been theirs without reply.
Think back a year ago. We have actually beaten back many. Others we have let know their behavior towards this wonderful country and its leaders is not acceptable.
Too bad that the Jawa Report could not focus fully on the Jawas. We spend as much time reporting and argueing with the Jawa huggers.
The dark side is losing. Yoda will see to it.
