I’ve received over 200 spam comments on this website over the past 3 days, and as a result I have started to add IP’s to my firewalls blacklist. So far ipfilter has the following

block in quick on xl0 from 168.143.113.126 to any
block in quick on xl0 from 168.143.113.128 to any
block in quick on xl0 from 168.143.113.124 to any

And then had to run

DELETE FROM `b2comments` WHERE `comment_ID` > 952;

to get rid of all the comments.

I’m sure more to come. Let me know if you have any IP’s you want me to block.

I did a very quick timeline for my Grandfather (L.J. Adams) who passed away this year, but I think if I ever get some free time I will look into doing a flash/db based one.

You can see cbc for an example.

I’ve recently done some work to my Carputer, work that has caused odd behavior in the rest of the electrical systems of the car. I think in moving around my wiring I have grounded something out. As a result the ower door locks do not work if the doors are open. Only if they are closed.

At any rate. I have started to use Media Portal at home and in my car. I am able to record TV shows, dump them onto my removable hard drive, and have them in the car. I can also setup my media shares so that I have the same content in my car as I do at home.

It helps when trying to make your flight to not have your watch set to Halifax time but to St. John’s time (there were 150 people on a plane waiting for me while I was sitting in the Maple Leaf Lounge… oops).

Sitting in St. John’s after a flight from Heathrow. It will be nice to sleep in my bed tonight for several reasons.

The trip to England was a great success with regrads to work, but really didn’t do that much for me personally.

Tomorrow I drive to Cape Breton for good times with family remembering my Grandfathers great life.

also, traveling on your own time really sucks, when traveling for work you should fly first class and you should get paid for it
