well well well…

I think we’ve found a solution, at least for now, the spam problem I kvetched about yesterday.
So for all of you WP folks out there, get a load of Spambot Stopper.
It’s been 24 hours since I’ve installed it and let my moderation pants down around my ankles and only one comment spam has drifted […]

I give up

I’m done fighting the waves of comment spam. I just mass deleted a couple thousand comments awaiting moderation- a few of which were probably legitimate (sorry Rogi, Bob and Gary) but just got caught up in the wave of mass deletions.
Unless WordPress comes up with a way of dealing with the 200-300 comments […]

In Blogistan I am a God

Scoble gave me props.
I’m blushing.
Now I can go to work tomorrow.

rendevous?

So I’m sitting here high above New York’s Times Square and I open up iTunes and there is someone else’s playlists mixed up with mine?
Is this a bug, a feature, a problem with the W’s network?
Should I care since whomever this person is has some Roxy Music songs that I lack and somehow seem […]

turkey

I’m holed up in a hotel room high above Times Square in fab NYC.
Where is my wife…. you may ask?
She’s down the block at Sephora with my sister buying lipstick.
Have I told you how much I resent my sister? Nah… just kidding … I love my sister.

Can you believe for a $29 radio the cashierbot at Radio Shack tried to sell me a warranty?
J and I just spent a lovely few moments huddled under his blanket … pulled in the BBC, China (”what’s that lady saying, daddy?”) and some cool music from the Andes. Not bad for his first go-round with […]

J is five today.
Cliche alert - yes it does feel like yesterday that Sue and I were footloose and fancy free marrieds with no kids with tons of money to piss away on dinners in Toulouse and London and not a care in the world. And here we are with these three little people […]

I stumbled upon something called Audioscrobbler. Basically you put this plug-in on your hard drive that uploads your most recently played songlist to the Audioscrobbler web site. The dark, mysterious and multi-tentacled aliens who run the sight then compare what you listen to what others are listening to and arrange audio-geek blind dates with folks […]

uh oh

Conversation between Daddy and Princess L
Princess L: “I’m a Princess!”
Daddy: “You are!”
Princess L: “Yesh! I’m a Princess!!!”
Daddy (thinking he knows the answer - silly Daddy): “Who’s your Prince?”
Princess L (gets all dreamy-eyed): “Colin!”
Colin is a very nice sixth grader who lives down the street.
We are in such trouble.

Super Dad

My Dad and I just took the J-man to see his first ever grown up movie - The Incredibles.
Much to recommend, some grown up humor with stuff that’s funny enough for the little people, the sultry voice of Sarah Vowell and as an added bonus, your little one will be shouting ‘Where’s my super suit, […]
