Good job Ireland! We'll conquer New Zealand next! :)

The fact that notifications is nearly one in ten page views is kind of crazy. But I guess it's the first place I go, and I check them whenever I see new ones. It's a habit!

Unch, unch, up one, down one sounds like the beat to a rhythmical dance you hear at clubs.
