    Jack–

    My perception is that a lurker doesn’t really think quite like a stalker. A lurker would merely be curious, while a stalker would be obsessive. A lurker must tend to hang around out of curiosity, while a stalker must have ideas that can’t be shaken. A lurker is probably harmless, while a stalker is just plain creepy.

    Sorry to interject such grim ideas into your delightful blog!

    Donna,

    That is a good question. What do you think?

    Brian,

    Thanks. Merry Xmas to you.

    So, at what point does a lurker become a stalker?

    Hi folks,

    Thank you kindly for revealing yourselves. I truly find the blogosphere and its denizens to be fascinating.

    P.S. Ezzie,

    I wanted to make you feel good and went looking for a championship team from cleveland but I can’t seem to find any.

    So instead I thought that I’d congratulate you on not having lived through the burning river. 😉

    I like to think that I was the original lurker, since I didn’t even start to blog until 9 months after leaving my 2 cents all over the blogosphere

    Howdy. I get overwhelmed sometimes, and can’t think of anything to say, but I do pop in reasonably often.

    If we only comment like 10% of the time, are we lurkers? Or because that means every other day, are we commenters?

    Hiya! I’m a semi-lurker because I have commented every once in a while.
