I've been looking at the statistics on the countries where people who belong to the Secret Information Club live, and the results are interesting.
Not surprisingly, the majority live in the U.S. I was startled to see, though, that AWeber (the service I use to send out the secret information by email) listed the second most common country as "unknown." That's a little ominous if you take the Unknown Country as a Shakespearean reference, though it's more optimistic if you take it as a Star Trek reference. Or . . . wait, I guess that was "Undiscovered Country."
Since I write in English, it's not surprising that many countries after the U.S. and "unknown" were part of the Anglosphere: Canada, United Kingdom, Australia, Ireland, New Zealand, South Africa.
In addition, there are also now members in these countries:
- Croatia
- France
- Ghana
- Hong Kong
- India
- Indonesia
- Italy
- Japan
- Lebanon
- Malaysia
- Mexico
- Netherlands
- Nigeria
- Norway
- Philippines
- Singapore
- Slovakia
- Spain
- Sweden
So it's really cool to see the Secret Info Club becoming a global phenomenon! Thanks, folks!
Have you joined Jimmy's Secret Information Club?
You forgot Texas. Texas always deserves a special mention 🙂
So what you’re saying is . . . “Texas! It’s like a whole other country.”
Wow! Popular guy! BTW, can we respond to the emails you send, or are they just one way?
You can respond! (In fact, I need to put a note about that in the template so people will know that they can click “Reply” or “Forward” and the emails will work just fine.)
Ok, great! Thanks.
How many members total are in the Secret Club?
Over 700 so far!
Jimmy: you’re the coolest! I was thinking, ‘this guy needs a hobby’, but I can plainly see that Catholicism IS your hobby! And THAT is cool!
I’m part of this club, and I’m from Chile, part of that big unknown country I guess.
Hmm, sounds like Gnostic heresy to me! 🙂
Decoder rings plz?
The “Undiscovered Country” is in fact a reference to death in Shakespeare’s Hamlet (though one does not truly experience it until he does so in the original Klingon).
The “Unknown Country,” on the other hand, is either an esoteric website or an esoteric album.
