11,825 spams caught, 5,617 legitimate comments, and an overall accuracy rate of 99.708%.

When I arranged to go out today, I just knew they’d suddenly arrive to put in the triple glazing. It will not affect much because the posts are already up. Hopefully they’ll be done by nightfall and I’ll get back to you then.

“I’m starting with the man in the mirror… I’m asking him to change his ways… No message could have been any clearer… If you want to make the world a better place, take a look at yourself and make a change… A willow [...]

Well, well, well – the enigmatic and mysteriously accurate Xxxl, with whom this site’s security service has had such an interesting relationship, has stormed through the 200 comments barrier and caught us all unawares.
Congratulations, sir or madam or alien from the stars – your uncanny economic prophecies could hardly be human. For an example of [...]

What to do about the Blogrolls?
There’s just not enough time to visit the hundreds on my blogrolls and yet I want to. My mate asked two things about them:
