I have finally conquered the word verification monster! I had my settings all set to “anyone” and “no moderation”, but friends were still complaining about having to type in 2 words. I won’t name any names or anything but Kristin, Hadar, and Tara threw some fits.
I decided to contact blogger and get some answers because going in and changing my settings was NOT working.
Here is the answer I recieved—-It works!

Oh Reagan… you are so DEAR!
I have felt just like my kids with "learning differences"–trying five times and then giving up! (Not just on your blog!) But YOU deserve the credit for "going public."
Hey! Maybe this is like Tupperware… you get a prize or three points or a sippy cup every time someone joins up. And if LOTS of people do it maybe someone will send over a pink Cadillac… or maybe your bloggy friends will just be thankful…
And I'm thankful for you ALL the time!

Ok! I was horrified when I saw you couldn't comment on my blog!!! I have no idea why, I haven't changed anything! I just set the option open to everyone, even anonymous–can you let me know if it works when you have a second?? Thanks so much Reagan!
Thanks Reagan, I appreciate it! I don't think it's you, Rachelle couldn't comment either and I don't think she's had a problem before.
As for the blogroll, I am having the same problem and it is driving me nuts!!! I am religious about updating mine because I want to put so many new blogs on it, but I haven't been able to in weeks and I haven't found an answer yet. I'll let you know if I do!
YEs!! I hope everyone gets rid of that stupid thing.
