Spam, spam go away, and don't come again another day!
Greetings my faithful readers! My problems with spam comments never show up for you, because I never approve the spam. Sadly, at times I still get a lot of it, so now I had to implement one more safeguard.
Comment Challenge!
Aothored by Jay Allen.
Below you will see a picture of the usual comment screen, with one addition.
Just above the Post and Preview buttons, you will see the sentence "Please type the word "nosp@m" below.
Before hitting Post or Preview you must type that word or your comment will be marked as junk, and I will have to go sifting through all the real junk to find it. Note that the word is "nosp@m" and not "nospam".
I'm sorry to have to do this, but every now and then I get a barrage of spam comments, usually advertising unseemly things.

I'll be happy to do that Mike.
Good thing we didn't walk today, not only because of the rain, but the time you got to bed last night according to this post. It is nice not to have to get up every morning though isn't it? Today was a treat as it was still dark, and nice to sleep at 7:30. Tomorrow because of the time change it will be lighter 
.
Have a good day today and I'll see you tomorrow.
Love you,
Mom

The word authentication system that a lot people use for their comments is aggravating!! This one isn't. The other ones are so distorted with their numbers and letters and you actually are more likely to type it in wrong and lose your comments (in some systems and thankfully not all).
