Less than 5 seconds

5 secondsIt's amazing how many of you people can finish in less than 5 seconds.

It takes almost 5 seconds to read this line, so yes that's fast.

I was just checking my blog's visitor statistics and I am not surprised to I find that it doesn't matter what I write about, people keep coming here looking for Icelandic girls. Well, I admit that Icelandic women are...how should I put it, very clickable but still, in all humbleness I believe that there is more to this blog than beautiful Icelandic girls talking about how good life is or just generally looking hot.

Anyway, what I was starting to say is that from all the millions of visitor this blog gets per week, about 85% stay less than 5 seconds. Now come on, Less than 5 seconds?! Even a superficial guy like me who likes simple things in a silver spoon straight to the mouth dedicate more than 5 seconds to the boring charades of unimportant strangers.

And what about all the Icelandic girls? Even they require more than 5 seconds for almost anything they do, almost.

Besides, what possibly can you see in less than 5 seconds and already decide that you got to get out of here so soon?

I guess it all doesn't matter now, tomorrow I'm leaving the icy rock and going back to the middle east for 3 weeks. I wont be here to tell you about my adventures and give you updates from my recent statistics charts but I'll be with you in my heart and soul and unless I'll have something worthy to say to you (that will justify you'll spend for little bit over 5 seconds) I'll just say, hasta la vista for now.

  2. I hate to dwell on the obvious, here, but the next step is quite clear: You're an able photographer. Now you only have to convince Guðrun to peel for the camera. If I'm being too blunt. You must forgive me. I'm American.

    Have a wonderful trip to the Holy Land. Love you both!
