word verification on

ok. i turned on this feature blogger calls "word verification" that requires you to type a word that appears on the screen before you can post a comment. a stupid inconvenience for which i apologize, but i'm tahhhrd of having to delete bullshit-ass blogspam from this thingy with increasing frequency. why, in the hour or so since the last post, i've gotten _three_ of 'em. feh.
