I Wish Spammers Would Drop Dead.
I received an e-mail notification this morning that someone had attempted to leave a comment about one of my posts on here.

Two New Sections on the Way
Though they’re not yet complete (in fact, they’re barely started), I’m adding new pages to the main site which will provide very basic info about varsity and midget football in the Ottawa area.

Now I had some difficulty opening the document, and [...]
