Comments and registration
I’m getting spammed like crazy, and while the comments are going into the spam filter, it annoys me enough that I’ve just turned registration back on in order to comment. Which means the spammers will force me to close registration … Continue reading

Stupid php
Okay, I’m trying to revive my programming chops to add a “next post/last post” tag to the current theme, and, well, not doing so well at it. Since I only have a few more hours to myself this afternoon, it’s … Continue reading

Got tired of serif fonts
Lucida. Ugh. I’ll take a simple Helvetica clone over that any day. I also need to do a bit of tweaking to make the text more readable. I don’t know why people seem to think that 100% black isn’t a … Continue reading
A thank-you note to my readers
I’d like to thank you all for sticking with me these past couple of weeks. The site statistics have barely changed at all even through all the blog-hopping, changing to the old html style, and going through all the changes … Continue reading

In the meantime…
Still have a lot of posts over on my Blogspot blog that probably won’t get transferred over here, as you can get them on Soccer Dad’s and Snoopy’s blogs. Jack’s too. I’ll be putting a few of the Blogspot posts … Continue reading
RSS feed test
Okay, if you’re having trouble getting an RSS feed, close out your email/RSS client and restart it. I had to do that with Thunderbird, and you may have to do it with yours. We’re working on the rest of the … Continue reading

Life intrudes; blog recedes
I have out-of-town company, and that utterly trumps approving anti-Israel comments in a day-old post. Or any other bloggy stuff. It’s going to be gorgeous tomorrow, and we’ll be seeing the sights.

A quick note to regular readers
If you’re a regular reader and want to comment sometime in the future, you may want to register now before I make commenting registration-only again. I don’t need a lot of information—but you do need a valid email address or … Continue reading
Let’s try a thought experiment
I just disabled registration and enabled commenting. Soccer Dad’s previous post got picked up by Yahoo! News. Shall we start a pool on the number of anti-Israel comments that wind up in the moderation queue? Update: Two in eleven minutes. … Continue reading

Registration is open for a while
At least until the spammers twig to it again and start adding bogus accounts. Not that it really does them any good. I have about four or five levels of spam protection for the blog.

Comment trouble
For a reason that I can’t determine, some legitimate user comments are heading into the spam filter. I rescued three of them today, but a few were a couple of days old. If you’re a regular commenter here, and your … Continue reading

User registration is closed
Registration is closed because, once again, I am tired of seeing spammers register tons of bogus accounts. I would go into details about how I can tell they’re spammers, but that would simply give the more enterprising ones ways of … Continue reading

Site problems, again
Yes, my site was suspended again today. There seems to be a SQL query problem that was hanging up the CPU on my server, and Bluehost frowns upon that. So I was down for quite some time, until I brought … Continue reading

Registration is closed
I’m tired of Russian spammers registering bogus user accounts, so registration is going to be closed until I feel like reopening it. If you’re not a Russian spammer, and not an anti-Israel tool, email me and I’ll see about squeezing … Continue reading
