Porn seekers flock to tipsy beer truck story

I guess it had to happen.

A porn site has linked to this site's tipsy beer truck story, and the site meter is jittering into the stratosphere.

According to the meter, it all started last night at 2 a.m. That should have been a tip-off.

When I checked the meter this morning at 7 a.m., I already had 340 visits. This on a site that averages 50 or so visitors a day. (I’ll spare you the link to the porn site though for the motivated it shouldn’t be hard to find.)

It is 7:20 p.m. as I write this, and I’ve just hit the 2,000-visit mark for the day. I figure I’ll smack into 3,000 before midnight tolls. Who knows what tomorrow will bring.

I’ve always heard that the only people making money on the web are pornographers. The record number of visits I’ve had from crotch-watchers turned beer-truck oglers bears that out.

And I thought Portland’s legendary Bojack had a following. I'm sure it's not news to Jack that he's a piker compared to smut-mongers.

I wonder if weeks from now I’ll get repeat porno surfers who might want to broaden their interests beyond beer trucks and exposed breasts to Quaker thoughts about peace and simplicity.

I think not, but then again, what does any of this have to do with thinking?
