no toilet seats for Christmas!

LONGMONT, Colo. - Gary and Karri Clark haven't forgotten their second Christmas together. He knew she wanted bathroom accessories, so he wrapped up a couple of gifts and waited.

The toilet seat and towel rack didn't go over too well.

"Here I thought I was doing good," he recalled with a laugh. "It was something she can always use, day after day. It's the gift that keeps on giving."

Karri Clark admits she wanted a new toilet seat a decade ago because there was a crack in the old one. She just didn't think she'd get one gift wrapped.

"I could not believe it," she said. "What man gives you a toilet seat for Christmas?"

Bluetooth GPS receiver

This is cool as sh*t! I bought a new GPS receiver this weekend to go along with my new ipaq 5555. Pharos makes it and its cool factor is unbelievable!

It has a rechargable battery and is bluetooth enabled. simply turn it on, set it on the dash, establish a bluetooth connection to my ipaq, and off I go. I've had a GPS receiver for a while, but it was corded and had to be plugged into the cigarette lighter and into the IPAQ.

This'll be great on those motorcycle rides through the country next year!

Comment spammers, take note

I will report comment spam attempts to your ISP. I am committed, as are others to having your accounts shut down and watching your so-called "business" trickle into nothingness as you continue to abuse other people's private properties (namely, my email boxes and my blog).

There were two more attempts to post a comment on Clack yesterday spamvertising v1@gra (bringing the total to three by the same person). I sent the following email to the comment spammer's ISP this morning:

all times are GMT: 2003.12.21 08:14:37 203.164.91.94 MT-Blacklist comment denial on Clack: (levitra|lolita|phentermine|viagra|vig-?rx|zyban|valtex|xenical|adipex|meridia\b)[\w\-_.]*\.[a-z]{2,}

2003.12.23 02:56:49 203.164.92.12 MT-Blacklist comment denial on Clack: (levitra|lolita|phentermine|viagra|vig-?rx|zyban|valtex|xenical|adipex|meridia\b)[\w\-_.]*\.[a-z]{2,}

2003.12.23 06:31:35 203.164.91.247 MT-Blacklist comment denial on Clack: (levitra|lolita|phentermine|viagra|vig-?rx|zyban|valtex|xenical|adipex|meridia\b)[\w\-_.]*\.[a-z]{2,}

all three IP addresses point back to your network:
Name: parax23-a094.dialup.optusnet.com.au
Address: 203.164.91.94

Name: parax23-b012.dialup.optusnet.com.au
Address: 203.164.92.12

Name: parax23-a247.dialup.optusnet.com.au
Address: 203.164.91.247

while MT-blacklist is denying the comment spammer their attempt to post on my blog's comments, I am commited to reporting this blatant attempted abuse of my personal property.

Please deal with this abuser appropriately and give me the courtesy of a reply the problem has been dealt with.

Thank you
Jeff
