First off, happy new year to everyone. Hopefully 2007 will be a good year. We’ll see.

This morning, this site was hit with a spam-comment attack, resulting in nearly 100 sexually-explicit comments being attached to various articles. I’ve seen removed all of these comments, and gone ahead and added a CAPTCHA test to the comment form. That’s one of those pictures with words in it that you have to type out, to prove you are a human and not a spam-bot. No one seems to comment here anymore anyways, but I feel like it’s an essential part of the whole “blog” experience.

In other news, not a whole lot else is new. I have some photo gigs coming up, so look for some new images in the next few weeks. Mostly local DC area bands, including Exit Clov, Middle Distance Runner (again), and Telograph.

Look for the next entry in the Favorite Records of All-Time series later today or tomorrow.
