January 28, 2004Wintertime BlahsI think I must have the Wintertime Blahs. Maybe you've heard of it. Some scientists believe that it has something to with the amount of sunlight and blah blah blah. Who knows. I just know that having some time off with little motivation to do anything exciting has gotten old.
I opened my email last night only to be flooded with (and I'm not joking here) more than 480 Movable Type comment notifications from this site. You see, there are programs that people write that go out on the Internet and find Movable Type sites and flood them with comments. It's not even spamming, if you ask me. It's just annoying. Luckily, I found some software that will allow me to prevent this kind of thing from happening again. So if you're out there, annoying-comment-spammers, BRING IT ON! I guess it's time to get back to work. Or maybe I'll just go play with GarageBand some more. :) Posted by Jeff at January 28, 2004 10:16 AMComments
Jeff, I really liked your song! What a cool program, it seems like it's helping you get through the "blahs" :) Posted by: Lauren at January 28, 2004 01:03 PMJeff, I get those a lot for older articles, spam for prescription drugs....and since they're not Avelox/LeVitra/Cipro related, I have no intention of keeping them! What software did you get to zap that? I've been manually blocking IPs!! Cool beat, Jeff! Dad and I were dancing around the family room to your "little ditty!" I can see your Dad now, when he gets Garageband, oh my! Posted by: Mom at January 28, 2004 08:17 PMNevermind Jeff... Just saw the update on MT's site. I'll give it a shot! Posted by: B at January 29, 2004 02:44 AMActually, I'm using MT-Blacklist, found here: http://www.jayallen.org/projects/mt-blacklist It also searches your previous comments and allows you to remove them if they are spam-eous.

Luckily, our iLife '04 software arrived yesterday at work. It includes updated version of iTunes, iPhoto, iMovie, and iDVD. In addition, it included a brand new app called GarageBand. Now, you guys know I'm certainly no musician. At all. But, I sat down with GarageBand last night and had a blast creating a couple little ditties using the built-in loops and effects. Curious enough yet?
