hey...64.141.68.16 2004.10.24 is my address!

i had to give up. so douche plastered almost every entry i have with Trimspa ads, and i just couldn't justify spending the time to get rid of them all. i already banned 19 new IP addresses today.

one thing i have been doing is when i go back and delete the comments from posts i also close the comments for that post so that i won't ever have to go back and deal with it. i'm also toying with the idea of closing the comments on all entries 7 or 10 days after they've been posted.
