Why are the Filler Posts so Popular?

Why is it that my filler posts on both of my blogs are so popular? They easily get the some of the most pageviews. It's odd. If anyone knows why, please let me know.
And indeed, this is a filler post. I'm preparing a post on a very special book and the animal rights and philosophical ideas it raises. It will be up next Sunday (if all goes as planned).
Bye for now,

Eco-Friendly Filler Post

Filler post time!
I've just been thinking about how misunderstood the term "eco-friendly" can be. People need to start realizing what is good for the Earth, and what isn't:

• Going for a walk around the block is eco-friendly. Driving a few miles to walk at the nearesr nature trail isn't.
• Recycling is good, but it isn't enough. Please don't say that recycling alone is enough to call yourself eco-friendly-- it doesn't even make sense.
• Buying eco-friendly gifts for youself is hardly a planet friendly gesture if you're buying things you don't need in the first place.
• Driving a solar car or other "sustainable" vehicle that runs off something other than human power is a ploy to get your money-- it isn't really eco-friendly. It's better than a regular car, but not as good as walking or cycling.
• We have to cause radical change to our lifestyles if we ever hope to save the planet.

Not trying to be a pessimist, guys. Just being honest.

Have a nice week!

Filler Post

Dear friends, please allow me to write a filler post this week. I am a few thousand words behind on my novel, and today may be my only plausible catch-up day! (And I only have the morning at home, anyway.)
Please come back next week for a delightful treat (it has to do with the winter holidays and Christmas!).
Thank you!
