Imagine me channeling the guy at the mall kiosk that asks you whether those are your real nails or not… and then starts spouting about how the Dead Sea has healing salts…  Okay, done?

I’m doing research into how to optimize the efficiency of my blog reading.

(READ:  I do not have three hours to read blogs and as a result have read about 5% of the posts in my reader.)

1. How many blogs do you read?

2. How do you read them (i.e. GoogleReader) ?

3. How do you organize them?

4. About how much time do you devote to reading them?

5. How often do you comment?

6. How mad would you be if I stopped reading your blog?   (KIDDING.  No.  Not really.  How mad?  Like, “Meh, whatever” or “I will stalk you and boil a bunny rabbit in your kitchen”?)

7. Do you have any suggestions to help me out?  Other than paying more attention to my husband and abandoning the Internet completely, Tariq?
