Blog Maintenance

Alright, as much as I really hate to do this, I have to bother the people that I appreciate the most on this blog - those that leave comments.

Because the web is full of jerks, miscreants, and those just out to make life a drag for everyone else, I get about 50 pieces of email a day from web-bots "commenting" on my blog. Now I have the screening set up that their comments don't show, but I still get their emails in my inbox and it's really becoming bothersome.

Most of these look something like the following.

Ridiculous, sad, sometimes funny, but always a pain in the butt.
So as you can see it's a bit of a drag to deal with 50 of these everyday and so I've had to add a "Captcha" or  "Word Verification" when you want to add a comment. I sincerely hope that this doesn't discourage ANYbody from leaving their thoughts. If it does, please let me know and I will remove it and just put up with the spam.

Thanks for your cooperation with this.

  2. Smart move. Thanks again for dinner the other night. It was a wonderful night, with a wonderful person, and wonderful food and wine. I really appreciate getting to spend time with you. It was also nice to be back in PA even if only for a short time, I even stopped at Sheetz and got my favorite candy Mallo Cups. Hugs and love.
