Spam in the comments???

Recent­ly the major­i­ty of com­ments post­ed to my lit­tle blog here have been spam. The first time I saw this hap­pen I was rather sur­prised. But I got over that.
Spam gets into every­thing.
Weblog spam is dif­fer­ent to email spam. It is usu­al­ly hand entered by so no good fool who thinks it will make them some mon­ey.
Why would any­one think I would even tol­er­ate a link to a via­gra site?
For some strange rea­son the spam­mers seem to keep traget­ing the same few entries. Most­ly the first draft of my Ber­nice sto­ry.
But thanks to the won­ders of a lit­tle plug-in called MT-Black­list, I usu­al­ly know about any spam posts with­in an hour of them appear­ing and have delet­ed them. It also does a won­der­ful job of block­ing spam posts com­plete­ly.
