Sir Spam A Lot

I am just getting hammered by spam over the last few days (on this blog).  I’m glad that Wordpress has the “hold comments” function.  I don’t want to give those spammers any help!

Most of the messages are simply a couple words.  I’m not sure what these guys are doing, but I’m guessing they are trying to increase their relevance in Google searches etc.  Man, it sure is annoying.
