Hey all,

Just a quick note to apologize for the downtime you just experienced. I hope the 10 minutes of offline time did not cause any severe trauma or permanent damage. The downtime was necessary in order to install a very important security update, and I didn't want to wait until tonight to install it. The announcement was sent out and I started the upgrade about 5 minutes thereafter. 🙂

Also, we have a new advertiser on board. Please feel free to click on the new banner advertisement for Survey Repairs when it appears to show your support of their incredibly awesome choice to advertise with us. I might also brag a little bit to say that I created the ad graphic for them as well. 😉

Thanks!

Downtime? You mean we coulda had a sandwich, and NOBODY woulda noticed? I'm not sure what to do knowing that that could happen again. Maybe if I print out some forum pages to read in case I go online and the forum doesn't work... Hey, thats an idea, portable forums, on paper, so you don't need batteries, viruses can't get to them, hmm, maybe I need to check into this idea... 😉

Besides for much of the damage already being done (in my case), the emotional stress was almost unbearable though 🙂

Traumatizing. I've developed another facial tick from the emotional distress this has caused not to mention the sudden onset of Tourette Syndrome. %&?#*&^%^!!!!


Just because I'm paranoid, doesn't mean they aren't out to get me.

Wendell I would say you have some surprising statistics for the amount of time people spend on here. I did notice the downtime so that gives an idea of how little I miss here!!
