There is also the minority of gifted, willful people who are determined to live their own lives to the end, and writers belong in this class.

Spamming Little Ol' Me

 

Here's a strange twist: some moron has programmed a bot to advertise through comments on my web site. That's not unusual if you're on Blogger or something; that's millions of web sites accessible through the same code written to leave a comment. But this site was written by me, and I know that my method was unique to this site. How desperate do these guys have to be to spend time coding their advertisements for my little web site? Good lord...

Fortunately for me, I get an email right after they post a comment and so I can usually delete it within 30 minutes of the comment being posted. But still. How dumb. And what a waste of time for them... I've changed the commenting process so that those posting a comment need to check a box. Will it stop them? Probably not. But I'll change it again later if they figure it out again.

Jeez...
