First off, I’m sorry to anyone whose received any of the emails that there were new comments on a post from my blog and the comment was spam. Sorry about that. I’ve added a Captcha, which is one of those garbled text image things you have to type in to confirm your comment. I really don’t like them but until I can get these spam bots to go away I’ll have to have the captcha up. Please keep commenting though.

Maybe it’s because the blog has been sitting rather dormant, or maybe it’s some other reason, but I’ve been getting about 200 spam comments on my blog a day for about the past four or five days. Annoying in that the comment moderation emails are filling up my inbox. But I’ll survive.

I think I might start blogging again, if only to keep the bots away. Don’t know what you can expect. Maybe random, maybe deep thoughts, maybe just more political stuff for a while. I spent more time getting rid of the spam comments and cleaning up the blog then it would take to punch out a little brief thought now and then.

So welcome back everybody.
