Spaminating

I just deleted about 300 comments that were sitting in moderation, and 50 pages (20 comments each) of spam that got through, most of it Russian.  WOW.
I’m turning off comments until I can upgrade the site and theme.  I’d try to do it myself, but I don’t remember any of the FTP information, so I’ll [...]

Comment Spam!

This is one of those blogs that takes up Webspace and is never ever updated, as much as the author (that would be me) would like to use it for something. It just stays up, looking pathetic, having not been written in for over a year—collecting comment spam.
I’ve been hit pretty hard lately. [...]

Expanding the Subject Matter

I originally wanted this blog to be my only blog. Then, I wanted it just to be a super blog, with posts that are more pertinent to certain subjects than my day-to-day LiveJournal covered. It eventually evolved into something resembling a writing blog. That I never update.
NOW, I’m looking very seriously at [...]

SPAM!

I’m getting spam comments now. They always find me! Argh!
I’ve only gotten two so far, and they’re long, long lists of links for things I don’t want or need. At least the first spam comment started with “sorry about this”. How thoughtful.
I really will post again some day. [...]

The Writing Life

I’ll post here again sometime. My husband is home now, and he gets computing priority. Once I get down to it, this will become a writing blog, with reviews as practice, probably cross-posted to another site, such as Helium.com or Gather.com.
I’m making changes in my career life, putting Mary Kay aside completely and [...]

COUCH!!!

I have a COUCH!
I purchased a Classic 3-cushion in Altima Hickory Pet Care (scroll down to “Classic Couches for $409″, click on the Altima Hickory Pet Care, and then click on the “See this fabric on the furniture” button in the popup).

Pain at the Pump

Gas prices, as I’m sure everyone is aware, are completely ridiculous right now. And gas companies are profiting. This doesn’t really make me very happy. However, it has been prompting me to do research on the next car I want to buy, because the time to put the Subaru to rest is [...]

More Thoughts on M*A*S*H

I’ve been trying to figure out why I can watch this show and not any other war-related TV or movies (although I would give Band of Brothers a try — more on that in a minute). It doesn’t make me antsy because of the violence (some war movies make me nervous because my imagination [...]

Playing with Passwords

Above, just under the picture, are two blocks. One says “Writing”. Please click on that. When you are prompted for a password, type “ferret” (without quotes).
Follow the instructions behind the password to see if you can download and/or view the file.
You should read the file, too, because it’s good. [...]
