Light posting tonight - busy day and busy evening

Spent this morning driving into town to meet up with my Dad and go to the Bellingham Highland Games. We got there just as it 'officially' opened -- they had people singing the Scottish, Canadian and USA National anthems and then two bands with a total of 400 highland pipers (plus drummers, etc...) massed out on the gaming field. Made the hair on my arms rise up. This is music that reaches back very deep into my character. I took some photos and will post them in a day or two. Now, I am working on some tactics to block the punks running comment and trackback spam scripts. I'm using a logfile analyzer to see if there is a trend I can exploit. So far it's mostly EU, Asia and Middle Eastern origin. To give you an idea of the volume I am dealing with, my raw logfile is usually 80 to 100 MB each month. Here it is just seven days into the month and I'm looking at a raw logfile 162 MB in size. Some people need to get a fscking life...
