Something is Rotten in the State of Denmark

That's how the line goes, right? I can't remember my Hamlet this morning, but the sentiment fits.

What the hell does this mean? How can the Cake Eater Chronicles be #445 in the Ecosystem?

Does not compute. Does not compute. Does not compute.

Just in case you're thinking I believe this blog should be higher, think again. I believe it should be lower in the rankings. A few weeks ago I was in the seven hundreds. Now I'm in the mid-400's? Something's really wrong.

All I can think is that the Ecosystem must have been consuming large quantities of beer (hey, maybe it's been hanging out with Rosencrantz and Guildenstern?) is drunk and is about to let loose with one heck of a belch.

UPDATE: Title fixed.

It's "Something is rotten in the state of Denmark." Marcellus says it to Horatio in I.iv.90

I've given up trying to figure out the ecosystem. I've been all over the place the last few years. For a few heady days, I was a Playful Primate, and then I dropped hundreds and hundreds of places overnight. Then just as instantly, I was back up near the top of the Large Mammal rankings. [shrug]

Heh. I SO hear you...I'm in the 600s and not knowing why. The links that aren't permas are gathering dust, and I expect that ol NZ bear will clean out the database soon. Yet still, if no one's links are clearing out, and you're still rising, that should mean something eh?

Hail to the Goddess of Snark!
