I read because we're related. I skim sometimes where the entry turned long, often on topics that aren't very dear to my heart (e.g. worm condos, political anxiety, Hez). I prefer reading posts that led to comments, because I don't always check in that frequently, and comments are a pretty good indicator that someone finished reading the post.

I read to be able to correct you any time you claim George Bush did anything right or that he and Obama differ in any meaningful way.

I read everything eventually when I can. I use a feedreader, which means I occasionally miss a post (like I nearly did with this one!). I get overwhelmed with more than two a day, but consistency is better than an stream of new posts. Yours is one of the few blogs I regularly check even when I'm behind and doing less computer work. I like the variety of topics and your insight. I only dislike it when you state your opinion in a way that could be offensive to others, but I tell you when I think you've done that. Yes, and about my blog, maybe someday . . .

I forgot to answer the other question about content - I read everything, though I am less interested in the historical and genealogical stuff.

I doubt I could be overwhelmed by your blog, considering the vast quantity of other blogs I read (or at least skim) (though the RSS reader told me he had missed me for six days, and so had plenty for me to read today...)

I enjoy reading your posts on most topics except the ones on government/politics. This may be where you get most of your outside-the-family comments though. My not reading them has nothing to do with your position, it has more to do with my lack of interest. I would much rather read about family, genealogy, everyday life, etc. I use your blog as a way to keep in touch with what you are doing.

I read every day and I have to admit I am disappointed when I click over from your Welcome Page and find nothing new (that goes for other members of your family who have blogs as well - how dare you actually have a life!).

I read because you're my mom. (: I also value your opinions and insight, and you bring to my attention a lot that I would miss otherwise. I generally enjoy your posts on many topics, but some not as much. Detailed economic theory is one example, but I can't think of others right now.. Favorites are aspects of your personal life like what you did last week, how your garden and worms are doing, etc. I prefer excerpts within posts because I rarely click links to other articles. Sometimes I am overwhelmed by the quantity in my feedreader, but I just take it slowly and may not get through it all for a while.

It's not only because you're my Mom; yours is one of my most interesting and enjoyable blogs. I like the variety.
