Just can't keep the Spam out

And I don't mean the luncheon meat variety (those are nice; fried, baked, deep-fried, grilled, all sorts of ways to cook and eat those but I'll save it for another post).

What I'm referring to are those horrible spam comments with lots and lots of dots at the end of the comment, each dot linking to some other site. These comments are the reason why it's so hard to leave any comments on the blog, as I have to switch on word verification, allow only Google members to leave comments, and then moderate each comment as it comes in (usually lots of spam, and no real comments, but never mind).

So, when Blogspot finally sorts out the issue of spam commenting, you might find it easier to leave actual comments on this blog.
