My blog was hacked!

Seriously?

Don't people have anything better to do than sit around cracking the code for CheapThrills?

See post below. I didn't delete... for some ridiculous reason I find the whole situation incredibly amusing. I mean come on - Personalised Number Plates? Really? Couldn't even attempt to match my content? Hide an obscene joke in there or something? Or even so much as spell "personalized" correctly?

These hackers are incredibly unimpressive.

Scratch that. Kinda impressive. So now that I've praised your craftsmanship will ya leave me alone, hacker?

Looks like Charles Swift's Boston News-Letter and City Record blog also got hacked:

I added comments to both, but the comments were moderated. Hopefully that means my comments were e-mailed to him and he'll see them.

(by the way, why can't I use an HTML "A" tag to put HTML links in my comments here?)

Yeah, I got hacked a couple of months back. It's still a wonder to me as to why people would do it.

As for the spelling though, it's not really a "mistake" per se. If you're using British spelling, it is "personalised", not "personalized". Just thought I'd point it out. ;)

So what's going on now? I see two new posts here that obviously are not yours. You need to change your password, I think.

I know. It's really messed up. These losers hacked into my email too...

Wow, that is crazy Ryan! Ugh, seriously, I can't find the time to write, never mind hack a blog. Get a life, people! BTW – different subject – have you been to Orinoco? It's my new favorite SE restaurant...
