I wanna start by making an announcement...
My inbox?
It's FULL from spam comments generated by The Six-Fingered Monkey. I'm currently averaging 25 spam comments a day. It has gotten so bad that genuine comments have gotten lost. So, after much debate (with the voices in my head), I have decided to install CAPTCHA to combat spam.
Bastard!
I know. I hate CAPTCHA too. But, I really need to try and deal with this. I know that it's hard for you to bring yourself to comment on my drivel in the first place and I have just made it harder... but, look on the bright side...
IT'S FRIDAY, BITCHES!!!
As if installing CAPTCHA wasn't enough, I'm gonna ask you to do something else for me... I am currently competing to become King of the Blogs, through the "Game of Blogs" contest, sponsored by Brandon at My Own Private Idaho.
So would you please help a brother out by voting for me?
Pretty please?
Also, keep your eyes open for my latest Dude Write entry (currently not written) and go vote for that one as well.
It's a special competition this week, presented in conjunction with bytestories. Let's see if I can actually write a post in 1500 characters or less.
I promise that you will love it and that it will involve sex.
Alright. Let's get down to business here...
My Digital Footprint
This week, from the pages of Sprocket Ink, I bring you not one... but TWO pieces of incredible snark journalism:
- Click here to find out what Hugo Chavez is doing these days. (Spoiler alert: He's in heaven, chillin' with JC)
- Click here to read a "feel good" story about a thief who had a change of heart, 30 years later.
Our most recent comment of the week comes from Queen Holly The Magnificent, who commented on a photo of D-Man with the words I have been longing for a woman to say to ME for years...
"Go on kiddo, you ROCK that sweater vest"
That's all I got. Have a great weekend, y'all.
xo,
Six

I stuck you in a tit blog, so if ya don't like it, let me know. I put ya into those tits and I can take you out.
I don't know if a woman will ever say "you rock that sweater vest" in anything other than a mocking tone to an adult man.
Also, I think I deserve some sort of frickin prize for still commenting despite the Captcha. Are you sure you don't want to do comment moderation or perhaps have us physically mail in our comments with a stool sample to ensure we're dedicated enough to comment?
I just had to go through a Captcha to mention that I despise Captcha....way to go sellout.
@Pickleope: Believe it or not I alread HAD comment moderation turned on (and still do), yet I had to pour through 25 to 50 comments a day to delete spam. You deserve a prize for being you and, yes, I will accept comments via mail (just be sure to include a $5 bill in the envelope.
@Who Woulda Thought?: When you become as popular (and awesome) as me... you will sell out too! Oh, and good luck in the latest Dude Write contest. You're going down bitch!
I got rid of anonymous commenting and the spammers pretty much disappear. Captcha sucks dude. I cannot get it right on the first try EVER.
@Mandy_Fish: Seriously? I never thought of just blocking anonymous comments. I'm gonna try that for a while and get rid of CAPTCHA - cause I like it when you comment on my blog... and I wanna make it as easy as possible... Everyone can thank Mandy for making the CAPTCHA short-lived. :)
