In all the months when I didn’t write new posts here I only checked in every couple of weeks to see if I needed to delete any spam comments on the old posts. Usually I found between 2 – 5 that Akismet had taken care of already.
Now, in the last 3 days since I published [...]

Is it Thursday again already?
Ah well, looks like there won’t be a Thursday Thirteen from me this week either.
