Keep the families of Newtown in your hearts and prayers

I still can’t even put my mind around the tragic events of today at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut .

I don’t know of anyone who is not in shock and feeling the sorrow of the parents and families of those involved.

My heart goes out to the parents, family members and friends of those killed. I can’t even imagine the grief in their hearts and how their lives will be changed.

Every single day – tell your children that you love them.

Tell your children’s teachers and school principals how much you appreciate them.

I’ve been getting a lot of SPAM lately – and fortunately (thanks to WordPress) it is filtered out.

SPAM…it isn’t just a weird pork product.

Thank goodness for the wonderful folks at WordPress and their SPAM filters.

I’ve been getting a lot of SPAM lately – and fortunately it is filtered out.

But  sometimes wonder WTF those SPAMMERS think when they send out posts in bad/broken English, weird thoughts and sometimes insulting comments. From what I’ve seen, WordPress bloggers aren’t a stupid bunch.

Below is the crop from the past few days:

 

keep informed and read a lot and you will be always writing awesome articles like this one. just an advice.

Heya i’m for the first time here. I found this board and I in finding It really helpful & it helped me out a lot. I am hoping to provide something back and help others such as you helped me.

i don’t get what you’ve said, but i always appreciate different points of views.

You made some really good points there. I checked on the web for more info about the issue and found most people will go along with your views on this website.

i totally agree with you in this subject, i identify myself with your opinion, that’s good.

I really like your blog.. very nice colors & theme. Did you design this website yourself or did you hire someone to do it for you? Plz respond as I’m looking to design my own blog and would like to know where u got this from. thanks a lot

please when you’re posting, do it carefully not to say the wrong thing.

Write more, thats all I have to say. Literally, it seems as though you relied on the video to make your point. You definitely know what youre talking about, why throw away your intelligence on just posting videos to your weblog when you could be giving us something informative to read?

Greetings , men! Do you enjoy having great pastime in a company willing sweethearts? We want to suggest being with greatest temptresses 

I was curious if you ever thought of changing the structure of your blog? Its very well written; I love what youve got to say. But maybe you could a little more in the way of content so people could connect with it better. Youve got an awful lot of text for only having 1 or two pictures. Maybe you could space it out better?

__________________________ end of SPAM

The little nasty Internet robots have been working overtime if they found a blog written by me. But then again, I bet all bloggers get this.

I own my own URL for my personal email and it  took over 10 years for the SPAMMERS to find me. I wonder if that’s a record.

The problem with this stuff is that unfortunately there are people who take it in. I’ve had to tell the elders in my life NOT to open email they don’t recognize. I’ve had to tell the elders and my kids not to answer phone calls from people they don’t know. I’ve told them all about internet stalkers. We know the difference but unfortunately not everyone else does.
