I’m tired of wading through the flood of anti-Semitism and anti-Semitism thinly disguised as anti-Israelism or anti-Zionism.

I have just restored registration to this blog.

  1. When I logged in, the site sent me to my profile and showed a message that you should update your site to WordPress 2.7 from the current 2.5

  4. Sabba Hillel, I know. I’ve been ignoring it for a while. I’ll take care of it this weekend.

  5. Jen, Elisson, you have no idea. Some asshole sent me an email when he couldn’t comment, and used his work address. Big mistake. He’s been googled and advised that he needs to be more civil or his place of employment will hear about his abuse of work email.

    And you’d think that would be an exception. You’d be wrong.

    They truly are that stupid.

  6. You’ll make such trolls believe even more strongly in the International Jewish Conspiracy to Control the World (TM) Meryl. Getting them punished for a little innocent antisemitsm and vicious email language. Sheesh.

  7. Good for you, Meryl. There’s no better game than “Whac-A-Troll”.
