“Come Monday…” is a
weekly series that will involve a review of, or commentary about, websites, movies, documentaries, television
shows, sports, music, and whatever else may tickle my fancy at the time. Be assured that these reviews will be
generally positive, as in accordance to the Jimmy Buffett song “Come
Monday.” This is subject to change,
however. In fact, I would be most
derelict in my duties to neglect going on a rant every once in a while. For rants promote change, and change can be
good—right? Therefore, since good is
generally considered as being a positive force in 99.3% of the parallel
universes that I am aware of, even a rant could be considered as being
something positive, and a genuine hissy-fit would be even better (so I’m told).
First
of all, I would like to clear the air concerning any confusion over this being
about pooping spam. Although, one might
wonder with all of it coming my way lately.
Hey,
there have been some days when a total of over a hundred spam comments were left on
several of my pieces on all three of my sites, and over 70% of them were
getting through the Blogger spam filter.
Hence, the reason why I have started moderating comments after keeping
the door wide open since the beginning of my online odyssey six years ago
tomorrow.
Be
assured that the door is still open to all legitimate comments. It is arguable that anyone who would be
critical of my “stuff” has to be illegitimate, though.
Alas,
I was so excited the first time I saw where I had received a comment on one of
my endeavors to persevere. Nonetheless,
I was somewhat confused about what selling T-shirts out of Portugal had to do
with the theological matter being addressed in the article.
Hopefully,
that clears the air of any lingering concerns over the spam issue. So, let us get to the poop on poop—posthaste!
Yeah,
I realize that many are of the opinion that it is an untouchable subject. However, a big part of the intrepid reporter job
description is to have a willingness to wade through the muck and mire until a
story can be found.
Be
assured that I hope I am not dumping too much upon you at once, but the poop on
poop is that proper pooping really is an essential part of maintaining good
health—especially for those suffering from cirrhosis of the liver. For dangerous levels of ammonia can build up
in the bloodstream if one does not watch what they doing.
Ironically,
one often does not have a clue about what they are doing when those ammonia
levels become too high. For they slip
into what appears to be a drunken stupor, and taking [Lactulose] helps to bring
my beloved wife back to me.
Of
course, there have been times when I have watered down her medicine in order to
keep her being sweet, but that is another topic for another day. (Yes, I am just kidding about watering down
her medicine…kinda.)
Thankfully,
she was finally approved for Medicaid.
For we were having to spend almost a $100.00 a week on just Lactulose,
and that should now be down to less than $10.00!
She
keeps insisting that I need to start taking the stuff. Be assured that I have no idea why, but I
have met several out here in cyberspace in desperate need of a good poop.
So,
let me end this with a question that can now be heard being asked around
mid-morning of most days in our home. Have
you pooped yet?

Are you sure this subject couldn't have been better addressed on "Fishhawk Droppings?" ;-)
ReplyDeleteif you set your comment setting for 'who can comment' to 'registered users - including open i.d.' that eliminates any anonymous comments. that is how 99% of spammers get through. the registered user setting forces someone to have a web i.d. (google, wordpress, facebook, whatever) that is linked to an email address. i rarely if ever get any spam. ever!
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by, my dear TWG!!! Yes, I have considered that option, but some of my most satisfying comments have come from those associated with the subject of an article and did not want to go through the sign-up process to receive an online identity. Furthermore, some of the most honest comments I have ever received on theological pieces have come from those who did not want to be identified. Subsequently, I would rather have to wade through dozens of spam comments than lose even one of those.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by, my dear Gorges!!! Well, now that you mention it...
ReplyDeleteI'm all set!!!! LOL I too have had lots more spam......gee whiz!
ReplyDeleteI have a hundred a day from a Polish doctor who treats Lyme disease! Can you send a gunman to Poland?
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by, my dear Gloria!!! Um, but did you actually do anything while sitting on your throne? (LOL?)
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by, my dear Adullamite!!! It sounds like he could do with a good dose of Lactulose. For they don't even grow limes in Poland!
ReplyDeleteI stopped allowing anonymous comments when spam started getting through the filters
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear that Arlynda was approved for medicaid. what a difference that will make. I can't imagine 100 a week.
Thanks for stopping by, my dear Ann!!! Yeah, with her medications, we were paying over $600 a month for about half of her prescriptions without health insurance, and none of mine were being filled.
