Interestingly enough (well, to me…) I’m not the only blogger out there smitten with the phrase “Not That You Asked” relative to some personal blogging.

I did manage to register notthatyouasked.org (.com and .net may still be available) to formalize things somewhat, though NTYA has been my blog tagline pretty much since I started blogging back in August of 2001. For a trip back in history, here is THAT RIVETING entry…

The Google search for ‘not that you asked’ turned up some interesting results (again, well, to me…)

The Mandell Family blog titled Not That You Asked have cornered the SEO market on ‘not that you asked’ phrasing. Looks like she blogs for Parents.com also, so definitely worth checking out! I’m a parent! Don’t you just love the Internet?

There are a few Not That You Asked books at Amazon, including Rants, Exploits, and Obsessions by Steve Almond:

In fact, Steve gets 2 of the 10 first page results of the Google search and adds a third sponsored link. Alas, for me, one is enough – Steve, my order is in – though I’m not yet a sexual failure, I’ll take in the book through vicarious eyes, and well, be prepared for anything I suppose. Us NTYA folks MUST stick together… at all costs!

Beth, an Aries from the Midwestern United States has just slightly less Google-placement-fu than I do, coming in at 8th (wow, I’m 7th?!!)

Wow, the Mandell’s, Beth and Steve all kill me on word count – I’d better step it up. Plenty to read. I’ve added you all my RSS feed and roll call here – I’ll keep on checking in.

Carry on my phraseologic brethren!
