2009 Calendars Order Now!

If you got here via the XK Data, Saloon Data, XJS Data, XJ6 Data or the Healey Data nav bar, this blog can't "live" on multiple domains as the blogging software doesn't support it. The items discussed below apply to all domains, and I'll endeavor to highlight items from all sites.

“Best hardwood cants and hearts, industrial and low grade lumber.”

The link submission form gets spammed pretty regularly by robots putting in such choice urls as fdhlkjshlkuefm.net (advertising sex pills*), but this forest-products link seemed to be entered by a human.** Just weird.

What person looking at a car enthusiast site thinks to themselves “ah, a perfect market for our timber products!” It’s bad enough that we get lots of requests to link to el-cheapo Toyota parts, at least that’s vaguely understandable…

Speaking of which, if you have any links that you like that aren’t on the sites but which are directly relevant, by all means submit them.

* Old car fogeys must be a natural market for sex pills, seeing as my Octane magazine has flyers for them stuffed into it (so to speak) every month.
** I’m not convinced “SEO” specialists are human.
