Everyone has a blog. This is mine.

  • Apparently, BusinessCreditCardProcessing.com is interested in invisible links

    This is the third or fourth link exchange request I’ve gotten in the last week! Huh? It’s not like I even update once a day! Far from it. I guess now that I’ve killed off comment spam, this is the next attempt to get spamvertising on my blog.

    The full text of the email follows; is anyone else getting this random nonsense? Or is it just me? Read and laugh at the complete targeting failure:
