Huckleberries Online

Wild Card/Saturday — 11/22/08

I have a fun tale for you that I heard second hand. Seems a staffer in the Spokane office was eating at a restaurant recently when she noticed a fellow at another table reading and constantly refreshing Huckleberries Online. She wondered why he kept refreshing the page. So she asked him on the way out. He told her that he so enjoyed the writing and comments here that he wanted to read the newest stuff as soon as it was posted out front or in the comments section. So, take a bow, Hucksters. And use this Wild Card for your fine wit -- and to keep that guy refreshing this page on his computer ...
