All in all, this was a good weekend. I received an ample supply of Idaho Spud candy bars; however, the method by which they were obtained was cheating. The good news is that they are very genuine Idaho Spud bars. Delicious and gukky!

I'm experimenting with my shoutbox. It appears that the problem I was experiencing last week is a permanent issue in that there is a force on the net that is running persistent attacks. I put my shoutbox back up for a few minutes today and almost immediately started getting 'box-spammed again. I had to make some changes to hopefully curb the profane activity. It remains to be seen whether my fix will stick. The shoutbox is up again and I am monitoring it carefully.

Now that it's a new month and I have a new supply of bandwidth, it's about time to make podcast #3. There's still something fishy going on with the bandwidth on my site - much was used by podcast downloads, much was caused by Slappy's spam-attacks, but there is another mysterious issue that I'm trying to figure out. Rest-assured that once I figure it out my joy will cause temporary incontinence.
