Aaron Adams’s Blowhard Blog

It’s obvious I don’t have my shit together when it comes to the comments portion of this site. In the past, I’ve hesitated to enable anonymous comments because it seems like I’d be opening the door to spammers. Conversely, I’ll bet that you hate registering for yet another dumb website as much as I do, and that registration ends up serving as a deterrent to comments as much as a guard against spammers.
