Aw hell, you know I signed this! Read on JD’s blog about a petition for getting that big kid who kicked it Darth Maul style into Star Wars: Episode 3. If you laughed like I did, please sign!

No, I’m not talking about some propellarhead DTD… I’m talking about either it’s really late and I’m tired and my eyes & ears decieve me, or XML has gone to far. The text format you love to hate, but still frikin use in your day to job has some-frikin’-how made it into the GOA Trance land… I’m sitting here late night jamming to a band called Penta with a song called XML. wtf… who makes a techno song about XML? It sounds like that dude from Korn echoed out with sliced guitar riffs. I don’t make the strict markup connection… whatever, I’m still not asking what XML is and how it affects me, I refuse. It’s bad enough it had to latch onto all the conferences while techies were dying left and right in an attempt to be some sort of super-tech fungus to keep the love alive in an apocolyptic tech economy, but now invades my music? I wish it would just stick to being the new playlist format, and stay the $%)*( there!

I know some of you may know this, but today I just formerely introduced. The head trappings are just funny. You see a new picture with this rabbit with things on its head from waffles to … shrimp crackers? Anyway, funny stuff. He’s an internet celebrity if you didn’t know.

I’ve been getting some blog spam as of late, and added my first IP to the IP Banning option in <a href=”http://www.moveabletype.org”>MoveableType’s</a> IP Banning config. Is this an effective method of blocking spam from those people?
