The site is suffering from a variety of ailments so I've shut down comments for now while I clean up the spam from the bots that finally found me here.
**UPDATE**
Okay, I cleaned all the spam, but haven't turned on comments. Nice that they found my site while I was on vacation and packed in about 450 comments of gambling, porn, and other such stuff. I guess it was just a matter of time before some bot found my site. I've left comments off for now until I figure out how to stem the tide.
