Curse the spam.

More comment spam. You won’t see it from reading, but it’s on the rise. I’ve changed the ‘blog configuration so that anonymous comments are no longer allowed… which means that if you want to leave a comment, you’ll need to create an account and log in. It’s a hassle, I know. Blame the Cialis advertisers.

Kublai’s incontinence is reaching new levels. His dog bed reeks of piss no matter how often I wash it, and the carpet is going to get threadbare from being steam cleaned. The vet says the next step is an ultrasound to see if there’s anything visible causing it. If it’s senile incontinence, there’s not much that can be done about it.

Subtle changes

I’ve re-arranged, added, and uploaded several items in the photo gallery. I’ll also be updating versions on both the gallery and the ‘blog soon, should you notice some funkiness. I hate version updates.

And allow me to rant! I’m more than a little fucking tired of spam. Not just in my email, which my mail reader catches and trashes, (but damn! Come on! I got one that read “BARELY LEGAL HOT NYMPHO MATURE MOMS!” They’re not even trying to make sense any more) but also in the ‘blog comments. I moderate comments, which means I have to approve any before they show up, and plugins catch even more; but it’s still a pain in the ass. No one wants to buy your Cialis, Viagra, or Hoodia, so give it a rest. Of all the annoying marketing techniques, you chose this one. And when a spammer finally gets caught and rarely prosecuted, they have the nerve to whine about freedom of speech and the right to spam! Kiss my chocolate pucker, asshole. I’m sure that right is listed in the Bill of Rights right next to the one says it’s OK for me stomp your head so far down your neck that you’ll have to unzip your fly to stick out your tongue. It’s about as annoying as 12 minutes of commercials for 30 minutes of TV show.

But that’s a rant for another time.
