Well, readers, friends, detractors, what-have-you, BiggerThanYourHead was launched in early December 2006. Nine months later, in the middle of last week, we passed the 100,000 mark for hits. In fact today, the hit-log stands at 105,555. I know, it’s not YouTube or MySpace or Gawker — or The Pour — but it feels pretty good to me. I wanted to say thank you to everybody who read and continue to read and especially to those who leave comments, because blogging is all about call and response. So keep those cards and letters coming in and tip up a glass of great juice in honor of all wine-lovers tonight. Cheers!

Fred:
Have just discovered your blog (what took me so long?) and have added it to my daily read. Glad that I can finally read you again and that you have lots more freedom with topics on the web than you did at former day jobs!

Thanks, Rusty, keep coming back. And don’t forget my website http://www.koeppelonwine.com.
I still have that day job, by the way.

Good to have you on the internet as a reliable source of info and comments; too many people out there blogging about matters they don’t know anything about; wine is part knowledge, of course, must more importantly experience. And whatever you do, however brilliant you might be, wine-wise you need decades of daily practice to really know what you are talking about… Thanks & Keep up the good work!

Congratulations, Fred! A well-deserved milestone, and one that I look forward to adding to as you move towards 200K!
