400th! OWL! Blog! Ever!
It’s time to celebrate, blog readers! We’ve just reached another milestone on the OWL blog. That milestone? The post you’re reading is the 400th one published since we started this thing way back in February, 2008. Three cheers for us, am I right?
Just think, blog readers: if you embarked to read one post a day it would take you over a year to get through the entire archive. That’s a lot of reader art, interviews, and movie news. A lot of mailbags, reverse mailbags, and awesome videos!
In honour of this momentous occasion, I give you a YouTube clip I really meant to give you on May 7 (Astronomy Day). Check it out:

Wow! I mean, it’s one thing to know that Jupiter is a whole lot bigger than the Moon (and the Earth, for that matter), but it’s another thing to see and feel just how much bigger it is. Amazing! Also: humbling!
Finally, speaking of “humbling,” I just wanted to say again that I couldn’t do the blog without you guys. You’re the best, and I’m truly humbled by your comments and continued involvement.
Happy milestone, bloggers!

Wow! Pretty cool. Amazing, Craig!!!! Hey, watch out for a change in my name, okay?
Now, Craig, when I came onto Craig’s Blog a few mintues ago, everthing was tiny…it still is. I can’t read stuff and it is so SMALL. HELP!!!!!!!!!
You probably have the screen zoomed out. Look at the bootom right corner of your computer and see if its at 100%. If its not, thats the problem.
Marissa 😛
Thank you, that’s what my Mom said to do too.
Do you know how to zoom in on your computer? That might help.
I know how…it was fixed yesterday.
Hannah, 10 – What is the name of your website {blog}?
http://www.theloveofbooks.ca !!!!!!!
Wait so when are you gonna update it {the website}?
I commented on it! 😉 It says it is awaiting moderation.
Marissa 😛
Thank you, Marissa. I am always wanting commenters and I want people to follow me on my Web-site…so please go on, everyone!!
Hey, Mary. It is updated now so check it out.
Yay! Wow, I can’t believe how many posts there are!
That video is amazing!
Wow, big milestone! I never would have guessed that there had been that many blog posts. The video is really cool.
WOOT WOOT!
Marissa 😛
Cool! I wish they were that close! But that would be pretty dangerous, though.
Yeah…I mean, You’d ALWAYS have a feeling that Jupiter might just CRASH into earth!!
Awesome
Cant wait till the 500
WOW, for both reasons= O 400 posts…WOW! Speaking of posts…Random Question (for the mailbag): Craig, does the blog look different for you because you write the posts?
Hey, Craig!! First, I love Diary of a Wimpy Kid, even though I can’t take with me, because it’s on the computer. And 2nd, are you going to be at Willowbrook Shopping Mall on June 3rd with OWL? My Mom said that OWL would be there and I said I always wanted to meet you. I’ll be going and so you know who I am, I’ll say, my name is Hannah, 10. Okay, so that’s how you will know, okay?
Hannah, I commented on your website. do you know when the comment will be moderated?
Marissa 😛
It will be moderated…today or tomorrow, Marissa. Thanks for commenting.
It should be moderated tomorrow or the day after. Thanks for commenting, Marissa!!!
Ok…I just checked and its still not moderated…so I’ll wait till tomorrow. Guess what Hannah? I’m a writer too! I’m writing a story called None of your Elfness, and Im on chapter 12…each chapter is about 2 paragraphs. I already wrote another 4 page story called It Felt like Yesterday was Real. I should show you them!
Marissa 😛
Hey Marissa. If you like, send me a chapter of the story, and I’ll post it on the blog!
Great job, Marissa! What made you diside to write?
I decided to write in about March or April. I thought it was a good way to express my feelings. In my writing….some of the characters are going through what I am, and its my way of speaking out. When ou red what I sent to Craig you will see. I am not litterally going through the same type of thing, but the same type of emotional things my characters go through. It makes me feel better to write. What about you Hannah? What inspires you? I think it is so cool we both write.
Marissa 😛
What inspires me to write…let’s see, I couldn’t have said it better myself. Technoly, I write for the same resons you do, Marissa. Thank you, I really couldn’t have said it better because you hit every reson why I write. And it is pretty awesome we both write.
good for you!
Who are you??
Good for who, me?
