Monster day online

Yesterday we had monster traffic with 41,503 uniques and 160,303 page views. Surge was due to a Fark pickup of Beth Dinan's story of the woman charged with DUI on way to Bible study class and then great local traffic on the story about the pastor suspended for dating a parishioner. The Holly Spreen story and Gina's online-only plea to save Adam Carolla (sadly unsuccessful), also scored big. I think using Adam Carolla's name in the headline helped drive up its Google ranking. Nice job all around folks. Thanks.
