Thanks to CNN's little bathroom snafu, Rubinville got more hits than ever yesterday. Interestingly, we got a ton of hits because many people searching for her spelled her name incorrectly, typing in "Kira" instead of "Kyra." See, my lack of fact-checking around here can pay off sometimes.

This all clearly leads us to another installment of the top ten search phrases people used to come to Rubinville...

1. Kira Phillips
2. Kyra Phillips
3. Kyra Phillips bathroom
4. Horse Vagina
5. Dave Rubin
6. Kyra Phillips open mic
7. Kira Phillips audio
8. CNN Kira
9. David Rubin
10. Rubinville

As you can see, it is a very uniform list. Hoepfully, some of the people who stopped by for Kyra will come back for some Dave, I'll just have to keep my fingers crossed. If I know one thing, it's that the good people who came for horse vagina will be back, so that need not be mentioned. I do want to emphasize though that I really do like Kyra, and you can check out the archives to confirm that.

One last clerical thing. This was by far the most hits here this month, which continues a trend of increasing traffic for something like the last 14 months. I'd like to get the comment section a little more alive, but I'm told that the Rome comment section wasn't built in a day, either.

As the student of comedy that I am, I've been reading a book, "Seriously Funny", about the great comedians of the 50's and 60's. To no surpirse I've loved the chapters on comics like Lenny Bruce, Bill Cosby and Mel Brooks. To my surprise though, I found the chapter on Joan Rivers pletty enlightening, too. Just when I thought I knew it all.

Okay, time to take Emma for a walk. I went to the bathroom a few minutes ago and she's looking at me with jealous eyes...
