Hurray for spontaneous changes to blogthemes! I kind of like this new theme (otherwise I probably wouldn’t have gone through all the effort to change it) and I think that I might be able to continue to tweak it to make it even more awesome as time goes on. Regardless, today was pretty busy for me, as I transferred this blog over to a new server and in the process of doing so I accidentally lost like, half of my posts. What followed was a frenzy of manipulating SQL databases and ripping data from them, etc.

So the notorious SUPERDELL of Totally Awesome Computers fame has announced his intention to run for Governor of Utah as a Libertarian. All I have to say is that this man, while obnoxious, has some of the most hilarious quotes I’ve ever read. So without further ado, I give to you the Dell Schanze Top Quotes of All Time:

I’m wracking my brain trying to solve a seemingly unsolvable dilemma: a workable strategy for consistently and effectively growing an SEO firm. You see, one of my friends owns an SEO consulting firm and he is wrestling with this particular problem.

For the first time since coming back from my mission for my church a year ago, I feel like I’ve finally found something that I can really sink my teeth into and enjoy doing: web development. It’s like I have this burning desire to tweak, customize, develop, optimize, SEO, and of course, monetize websites! At least it’s a semi-productive hobby, I suppose. As a result I might actually *gasp* change my major to computer science simply because I seem to enjoy the field so much!
And that’s about all of the developments I have to report for you now.

So I check my e-mail today and, lo and behold, there’s an invitation sitting there for my 5 year high school reunion at “The Halls of Thunder”, Timpview High School. Ahh, yes…. There’s nothing quite like a high school reunion to make you awkwardly self-conscious about how little you’ve accomplished with your life, eh? So I have to wonder, does anyone go to these things? Man, I don’t even know anybody from my high school class.

It isn’t any secret that the power of the internet is largely wasted on humanity’s collective lack of brain cells, but I am constantly reminded of this fact when I research keyword search volume and discover that an estimated 4,000 people search for “Free Online Ouija Board” every day, with another 2,000+ searching for “Virtual Ouija Boards” and of course, just over 1,000 people searching for “Scary Ouija Board Stories.”

As I was driving home from my regular Sunday dinner with the family, I nearly got in an auto accident due to a public display of cybernetic technology. I am, of course, referring to the phenomenon of girls with OVERSIZED sunglasses. Ladies, let me just be frank here: bigger is not better when it comes to sunglasses. Allow me to show you a few examples of otherwise attractive females that can easily be mistaken for CYBORG INVADERS due to their questionable choice in eye apparel.

Well, I’ve officially caught up with the cutting edge of 2003 by finally registering and listing items for sale online via eBay’s half.com, so, uh… GO ME! I just might get the hang of this newfangled internet thingy one of these days, we’ll just half to wait and see (terrible pun intended!). I figure, hey, I’ve got a bunch of crappy history books that I have no intention of reading again, so rather than going with my normal option (burning them in a massive inferno) I’ve decided to see if I can’t make a buck or two off of them by selling them on the interwebs.

I would be lying if I said that I didn’t at least partially make this blog in order to be the first to rank when you type “Greg Vandagriff” into the search engines. I haven’t reached that goal yet, but I am proud to announce that I’ve crept my way up to #3 on Google’s rankings! Just give it some time, folks, just give it some time. I think a fair estimate of any SEO professional’s credibility can be derived from how high they rank for their own name (but I admit that it helps to have a unique or bizarre name)…
