of comment spam and full body workouts

So comment spam is basically the new way to "deliver" spam to unsuspecting people. Basically what happens is a bunch of links to penis-enlargement, casino, online pharmacy, etc... sites show up in your comments pages for old entries. I'm not certain of the delivery method, but I'm sure it's scripted. One nice thing about MT is that when you log into the editer for your blog you can see how many entries you have and how many total comments there are, and see the 5 most recently posted comments and things like that. The problem lies in that I've left all of my comments on all of my old entries open for new comments to be added so now the spammers see them as an easy target. So last night I spent a couple of hours going back thru each entry, deleting the spam comments and closing the comments... it's tedious... I made it thru April of this year... I still have a LOT to do.

As for my full body workout, here is what I did - as much as I can remember:
.5 m warmup on precor
Physio-ball wall squats + bicep curl (8lb dbs) - 3x20
Physio-ball one legged lunges (8lb dbs) - 3x12 each leg
Shoulder press (8lb dbs) - 3x15
Physio-ball fly (8lb dbs) - 3x20
Standing bent over row (8lb dbs) - 3x20
Tricep overhead extension (5lb dbs) - 3x15
Front/Lateral shoulder raise (3lb dbs) 3x20 (only made it to 18 on last set)
Abs - slow bicycle to failure, straight and side crunches on ball (30 each side and 30 center), floor crunches (50), fast bicycle to failure
stretch

I Slept like a LOG last night. It was fabulous except that I woke up with a crick in my lower back this morning and I'm having a hard time getting it to loosen up. Oh well, advil, water and coffee are callin' my name.

3.5 on the agenda for today... no problem!

Search online... there's a plugin for closing old comments. I used it and it helped quite a bit.
