10 Months of Eavesdroppers

Hard to believe it's been that long...but it has.

The current stats:

Total Page Views:13,113

Total Uniques: 7,290

Keep coming and tell your friends!

Now, for another thing. Since we're getting bigger and have been here for nearly a year we've started talking about Eavesdroppers merchandise. The top two ideas were a book and t-shirts. Both would cost around $15-20. However, we don't know how many people would actually buy them. You have to have a certain amount to know the price. So...if you would consider buying one or the other, leave a comment on this post or email us (with subject "Eavesdroppers") so we'll know how everyone feels about it.

Eavesdrop on...Maggini in Tweed [and the rest of the Eavesdroppers Staff]

...never would've guessed.

Girl 1: You know what really hurts?
Girl 2: What?
Girl 1: When somebody just walks up and bites your nose.

Teacher: Well let me tell you something. You meet people at a bar, they're looking for one thing, and one thing only.
