Live: England v Australia
FIFTH TEST - MATCH SUMMARY (The Oval, Day 5):
England 373 & 286-7 v Australia 367
England lead by 292 runs - POSSIBLE 33 OVERS LEFT
Kevin Pietersen hit his first ever Test century as England closed on the draw they need at The Oval to win their first Ashes series since 1987.
He shared an obdurate eighth-wicket stand with Ashley Giles, hooking Brett Lee for six to take England's lead past 250 with 41 overs remaining.
Pietersen survived three dropped catches, the easiest by Shane Warne at slip when he had made just 15.
Earlier, Glenn McGrath and Warne shared five wickets to make England sweat.
I could have sworn that the English spoke, well, English...
Comment Spam? Driftglass stops spam Dead!
I mentioned a couple of weeks ago that the comment spambots had attacked me, causing me to turn on the spam stopper provided by blogger. I think I like Driftglass' solution even better though - he's keeping a spambot-catching post at the top of his blog as they apparently only attack the most recent post. This allows one the opportunity to read through and catch the hilarious ones, which all seem to take the form of: Hey, great blog!! I have a /*insert subject here*/ site. It pretty much covers /*insert subject here* related stuff. Come and check it out if you have the time! :-)
This has led to some beauties like:

Obviously I changed the links since I don't really want to send any traffic their way, although I am somewhat curious about what glyco flex products for horses are and what the issue is and why "Family Mom" writes that "my wife and I" were doing something (seems a bit odd). Reading further through the comments, if you want to know anything about Nextel racing or cat furniture or selling houses in Dallas or wedding photographers in Northhampton or debt reduction or discount cialis, you'll find the links in Driftglass' comments! Why, it's almost better than Google!
