I won't be going to a baseball game next week

Man things just keep getting worse and worse for me. First there was no real vacation planned which totally bites! I had gotten over that and I decided that I would do a mini-trip or two. Then last week I was out and I noticed that my car is not driving right at all. Did I mention that the inspection is expired so I would have to get that taken care of before I go anywhere? I also won't be able to get my car into a garage until Monday or Tuesday and I wanted to leave Monday?

That's not even the biggest reason that I'm not going though. I wanted to go to Toronto and watch a Yankees game. I was gonna shlep all the way up there Sunday, stay the night and go to the game on Monday, then shlep back Tuesday morning. It would have cost a few hundred bucks but it beats sitting at home doing nothing for a week.

Alas, it looks like I'm stuck in couchville for the week.

I got my spam problem taken care of

It was an easier fix than I thought it would be. Instead of logging in to my database and uploading all kinds of filters and comment boxes, I just increased the number of comments that I could see on my dashboard. Now instead of 20 comments, I see 250 at a time. Even though I had over 10k comments, 4 deletions is 1k comments so it really took no time at all to get them all deleted. I think it took me a little over a half an hour and that's while I was surfing and doing other stuff  in multiple windows.

It is so much easier to delete 2k spam comments every couple of days when you can load more at one time. Now if I could only figure out how to stop the comments and I would be very happy. Oh well, you can't have everything.
