I hate SPAM, and I’m not talking about the food product, I’m not talking about the play, I’m not even talking about the song. I’m talking about those greedy sons of %!$^@# unscrupulous spawn of Satan persons who flood our emails and who leave commercial scams in comments on blogs. I have an automated spam catcher that is pretty good, it has zapped just under forty spam comments to date. However one just recently made it into my Guest Book hawking Viagra. It was up for a few hours before I found and zapped it into oblivion. I also banned the IP address it came from from all my web sites.

So dear reader (and I assume there are only a couple of you), If you see any postings, comments, links, or Guest Book entries either promising to turn your garden snake into a python, sell you Viagra without a prescription, or claiming you can make $1,000 a day reading email, please be assured it did not come from me. Send me an email and I’ll delete it and ban the retard lowlife that posted it.

Thanks for letting me vent.

(Warning: Non-techies just skip this blog entry altogether.)

image001.jpgHere is version, oh let’s say… 2.1, of my website. Basically I’ve moved from hosting my website on .mac (Apple’s servers) to running it on a shared server at HostMonster. Besides going from 10 gigabytes disk storage to 300 gigs, this gives me much more control server side like, perl, PHP, mySQL, Linux Shell Access, CRON jobs and more. All that let’s me put together a slicker website.

The other big change is that my blog (what your reading right now) is now a WordPress blog. Again this gives me greater control over things. Among other thing you can register so you will receive email notices of new blog entries (posts), archives are now segregated by month, and posts can have categories. Another nice feature, for me anyway, is that I can submit these postings from anywhere. In fact, I’m writing this right now, on my iPhone, while traveling on an express bus (x4) somewhere in Brooklyn on my way to work in Manhattan.
