775 - Disappearing comments

So your checking out blogs for the fourth time today. You check the comments to see if something new is there. Hey wait. I know I put a comment here earlier. I've been deleted! Well maybe not.

My son-in-law has started a blog. Things that own me. So I left a comment yesterday. I just checked it. Comments - 0. WTF! Is he messing with me? He wouldn't do that. Would he? (actually he would) So I think, hit the refresh button. Boom, there's my comment, back from comment neverland. So before you leave another comment, refresh. Your comment may actually still be there.

And my son-in-law (collector) is posting the stuff he has collected in his still short life. I don't think I could live long enough to post all the crap I've collected over the years. My 10 years of stamp collecting could take up two life times to post.

The comments don't disappear, but you do have to push the "reload/refresh" key to reload the page to see them after you post. The thing that grinds my gears is that Yahoo Mail is now, for some reason, putting about 90% of my comment alerts into the spam folder, forcing me to carefully pick my way through the gooey mess of spam in search of the nuggets of commentary. Must be a new feature.

vw: hyber - really excitable, but with a cold.

Even though haloscan fubars every now and then, I like it so much better than bloggers comments.

The ones that confuse me are the people who activate the "awaiting blog owner approval". Did I leave a comment? Didn't I? Even more confusing if I type in the word verification incorrectly......

Forget about dissapearing comments. I want to hear about the mannequin wearing a bra in the back seat of the car.

John...very clever uh uncomment.

John left a period because you can't post a blank space. Another comment hassle. period.

God love ya, Bandit! LOL really a lot over here in our abode. I think Mike, Bruce, Bob, Tom and Harold even gave the mannequin a name. They--especially Bob--can embellish on her talent for deadpan comedy. I've heard many times how she stopped traffic when propped up against a lamp post.
