I've become the victim of my first blog spam (aka blam, according to wikipedia), and of all the ridiculous and obnoxious things I could be blammed with, it was, of course, the little blue pill: Viagra!!!! So after a year and a half of blissfully blogging away, feeling as though I was immune to the bane of the cyber world, I've been yanked out of my cocoon of assumed safety and slapped in the face with anti-impotency links. This breach has forced my hand and I've decided to no longer allow comments from "anonymous" readers. I know a few family members use anonymous, so I'm sorry to have to block this option, but I'm a little perturbed by the whole incident and am NOT looking forward to a repeat.

So they just left an ad on your comments or something?
That must have been why I got a couple anonymous, unrecognizable comments when I hadn't posted anything for months. I didn't do anything with them. Did you click on them to get them going?
