I have read 34, not counting the ones I only read half of. Apparently the BBC says most people have only read 6 out of this 100, so 34 isn't too shabby.
Edit: 12/24/10 Someone posted this on facebook and I thought, hmm, I think I have done this. So I went back through it and found I had read four more, bringing my total up to 38. Also, I bolded the ones I have read in their entirety and italicized the ones I had read part of, to make it easier to see. Left the "K"s there, though.
I don't seem to be doing much with this blog. I don't really mind, since it's mostly just for me to ramble and not something I expect others to be actively following. But hey, if you stumble upon it, go ahead and say hi, I like visitors.
