When I first launched this blog, it was in the Top 10 "Most Influential California Blogs" ranker according to BlogNetNews.com (BNN).
Then, when I started attending all the Council meetings, I couldn't spend nearly as much time blogging, so the blog dropped out of the Top 20.
Now, with Council on hiatus, and ZD's vacation basically consisting of round-the-clock blogging (you can check the output to confirm) -- ZD's LA Daily Blog is #8 in the State of California, this week. (Up from 11 last week.)
Mayor Sam is at #5...BUT I'M JUST ONE PERSON, Y'ALL...AND THAT BLOG IS A BUNCH OF PEOPLE, Y'ALL!!!
LA Observed dropped out of the Top 10, this week, so YES, Zuma Dogg's LA Daily Blog beat LA Observed, this week...and I did it with all hard-hitting content, not a bunch of fluffy gossip and non-essential warm and fuzzy stuff.

At the end of the day, whether I am #8, or #1000, it doesn't matter to me, cause I'm still sleeping in the seat of my car for the fifth consecutive month and hungry and tired and in physical pain from all of it.
BUT PEOPLE LIKE TO SEE MOVIES WITH BIG BOX OFFICE NUMBERS, THEY LIKE TO WATCH TV SHOWS WITH BIG RATINGS, LIKE TO LISTEN TO THE TOP SONGS ON A COUNTDOWN...AND LIKE TO KNOW THAT OTHER PEOPLE ARE READING A BLOG, TOO.
So there...#8 ain't bad for one guy, out of the seat of his car; blogging about all hard core local issues including a lot of exclusive stuff and breaking news stuff who is basically ALWAYS about ready to pass out from being up everyday at 4 am. (I'm so sleep deprived and f-ing starving...I really don't know how I am doing this...(check the output this week...I was supposed to be walking away from this non-paying...road to nowhere blogging, and I just set a personal blogging record these past two weeks. HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELPPPPPPPP!!
(AND WHATEVER YOU DO...DO NOT INVITE ME TO ATTEND ANY MEETINGS...UNLESS IT'S "MEETINGS ANONYMOUS!")
HERE'S THE RESULT OF THE PAIN: (See, it started off as a triumphant celebration of hitting the Top 10 again...but it only makes me bitterrer and crankier, cause I'm hungrier and tirederer.
