With all the crap that’s going on…and as an even better acknowledgement of our country in distress, I decided last night to change my banner to something more appropriate.
Namely, the Gadsden Flag, the de facto symbol of the Tea Party Movement. All I will say is that Президент Оба́ма and the Demo☭rats, not to mention all liberals, mess with this at their peril.

Since I have to go in to work early: from 0830 to 1700…training on completely new systems and VoIP, I think I’d better leave this message!

Well let’s see…sometime yesterday afternoon, after a walk around the apartment complex with The Mrs., I came down with what can best be described as…the crud. I’m functional, but I have a slight head & chest congestion, my legs are a little sore, and my taste buds are shot. Nevertheless, I’m going in to work today! Wish me luck.
ANYHOO...I’ve made a slight change in the banner; it’s quite obvious. That said, once I get my hands on ITC Machine Cyrillic, I’ll update it again with what it’s supposed to read. So for now, Оба́ма‘s name written in English will have to suffice.

OK folks, the old system resulted in getting a bunch of bulls**t spam from Russia. Here’s how the new system works.
Click on the “Register” link at the very top of the page to send me an e-mail. Please provide your desired user name, a valid e-mail address; and how you found my blog.
I’m usually pretty quick about it; that said, if you send it during normal business hours, well, I have normal business hours. And you’ll want to do this, just to avoid the verification key for non-member comments.
Thank you. We now return you to your regular programming.

Hey folks…I’m in the process of moving to another apartment this week. So if my posts are sporadic, you’ll know why. Wish me luck.

Why? ‘Cause.

That’s it. I’m fed up. All I get are frakkin’ bulls**t requests from Russians and Ukrainians. Frak that!
From now on, signup is by e-mail only. That means if you read this, you’re not a member, and you want to be, you have to send e-mail to me, and tell me how you found my blog. I reserve the right to approve or deny such requests.
There. You Russians, Ukrainians, and any other unscrupulous hackers who hail from Eastern Europe…Фрак Офф!

Time to turn the page….

One of my readers informed me tonight that he referred to this blog in comparison to the John McCain campaign in his electronic communications class at ASU. So if you’re reading this and you’re a Sun Devil, welcome and stick around!

Please re-read the following post prior to signing up. Thanks.

OK, seeing as I’m getting some membership requests, I thought I’d revamp the procedure for signing up, simply because I won’t put up with bogus requests coming from Russia or some nefarious location in eastern Europe.
And it’s very simple. Really, it is. If you wish to sign up, go ahead and do so, and then send an e-mail to me within 24 hours, letting me know where you heard about my blog. If you can do that, great. If you can’t do that, well then, see ya!
This applies to the person who signed up from Search for Glory…the clock is ticking for you!

Some a**hole from Ukraine kept hitting me up with spam trackbacks in a previous post. So for the time being, I turned off the trackbacks for that particular post. In addition, it left such a blatant trail, I banned its a** and if it tries again, I’m sending it to an undisclosed location.
What was that Basil Rathbone always said in his movies…“Watson, the game’s afoot!”

Frak the Russians. Those b*st*rds keep flooding my damn e-mail box with bogus membership requests.
Therefore, until further notice, automatice membership registration is turned off. If you want to register as a member, you know what to do.

Hello there. I’m in the process of upgrading the site, so it’s going to take a few days to iron out all the bugs. Please be patient.
We now return you to your regular programming.
