Bryan : Meh... I've been reduced to using the Wii to surf the internet. Though coming to this site doesn't exactly constitute "surfing" hah.
JenHardy : Hey! Thanks for the donation! I'll send you a true thank you when I'm back in the states.
Chris : Hey friends - donate to Jen's fund!

Chris : Woohoo, vacation! Beach, here I come!
Chris : Only 3 and a half working days for me...
Chris : Woohoo!
Lori Staifer : 6 more working days until the 4th of July!
Chris : It's actually built into the theme, but based off of jQuery: «link»
Paul C. : Hey chris - what plugin are you using for the tabs at the top of this column? I dig it!
Chris : yeah, finally
Jeff : Saw you finally started sharing on google reader.
Chris : Anyone been watching When We Left Earth on the Discovery Channel? Good stuff!
Paul C. : looks like you got another spammer!
Chris : I do, carries two.
Dan : I don't know about biking unless you have a car carrier for bikes.
Lori Staifer : Wow! It's been a while since I've been on your site, and it has changed. Oh, I voted for Europe. Dan and I are going there one day definitely.
Chris : Yeah, the celebrity editions left a lot to be desired. The first two seasons, with "normal" people, where pretty good, though. Jury is still out on this season.
Paul C : I tried to get into it the last time it was on (with that Baldwin guy) and I just couldn't. Annoyed me too much
Chris : Any Mole fans out there? Season premiere was last night. Good to see it back. Really liked the first two seasons, yeeears ago. This one's not as good so far, but still interesting. Early bet is on Mark being the Mole.
Chris : I've been hesitant to do class a/b bans...guess I need to go that far. On a separate but related note...the amount of spam I've gotten to my gmail account has jumped dramatically in the past two days.
paul c : most of the spam i saw was coming from china, brazil, and italy. i basically setup class a/b bans for those ip address space. sure it *MAY* black legit stuff if I have a foreigner visit, but is only comments and doesn't keep them away from the site. will get that list to you.
Chris : Sure, why not...I've been looking for a pattern with the IPs, but there hasn't been any; it's all random. The thing is that the spam should be blocked - words are in the block list and they used to be blocked. Some upgrade I did along the way broke that, though... Trying to figure out what part of what upgrade caused it to not work any
more...
Paul C. : Want me to send you the banned IP list I used on brian and ashley's website? So far I haven't had any more spam.
Or you could use the shoutbox that I use. I've never had spam.
Jez : Nice clean looking theme. I really need to get a new theme, and start blogging more!!
Chris V : Shoutbox is back up, but it may still be hit by spam for a bit...
Chris : Shoutbox is broken, so hang tight while I try to fix it. Know the problem, just not a solution...
