Thought I should blog something today. I spend a lot of time reading other people’s blogs. I am always amazed an how much people have to say. I guess I have a lot to say but I don’t think it is blog worthy. One of my original rules for myself was to “keep away from [...]

Fighting Spam
I installed Spam Karma a couple of days ago in an effort to fight the mounting spam attacks. It seems to work well and has stoped comment spam from reaching my blog. I don’t get much traffic to my blog so I don’t know if this will interfear with others posting a comment. I could [...]

Blogstrolling

tough times
I posted something last week that was just too painful for me to leave public so I hid it. It is still on the blog so I read it everytime I am masquerading as blog admin. But I just cannot allow it to be public yet. The few people I have been able to share [...]

I like learning, but…
I am taking this class that had the potential to be quite interesting but has turned out to be quite boring. It is supposed be a course in advanced telecommunications and network management.
