Would you like to put your penis on a diet and play some poker?

I’m not sure where I went wrong. Maybe it was my choice of titles for the blog… “Preaching to the Perverted” does sound like some kind of weirdo porn site these days, I guess. It’s actually a reference to a PWEI song.

Maybe it’s the fact that when I was visiting my brother in Japan, we were asked to take an “English Tourist” survey at Nijo-jo by the Hachigaok Jr. High English Club, and I foolishly took their picture and posted it on my site. Now, the most common search bringing people to my personal web site is “japanese school girl”. Of course, it fluctuates. Last month it was “atheist” because of this photo.

Whatever the reason, I’ve apparently been targeted as a compulsive dieter with a small penis and an addiction to Texas hold ’em. There must really be something to spam because anyone who knows me can tell you that description is dead-on.

So recently, in between hands of poker and poping diet pills while applying for a super-low rate second mortgage, I decided to add a CAPTCHA test for comment submissions. Not because I want to stop you, gentle reader, from taking advantage of these great offers people have been posting to my site, oh no! I want you to get your diet pills, card games, sexual enhancement devices, porn, mortgages, car loans, etc. I just want my cut of the action, like Evan.

And it did work… for about two days. The CAPTCHA test cut my daily comment spam down from 25-30 per day (yes, you read that correctly) to zero.

Alas, all good things must come to an end… and I came in today to find that I’ve already received 15 spam trackback pings today.

*sigh*
