Well, I'm not entirely strapped for cash. I'll send a check if you tell me where to send it. It ain't gonna be a lot, but some's more than none, right?

I don't shop at Wal-Mart, I buy Girl Scout cookies, and I put money in the plate on Sundays. I'll pony up something.

With the surge in traffic from Digg yesterday, it was kind of like winning the lottery... and then losing the ticket!

DNS is still down for me this morning, though it was working briefly late last night. It'll be sorted out and back to normal soon enough...

Yes too much of a good thing can in fact be a bad thing. I am the poster child for that bit of wisdom. Much of my life has been spent recovering from too much of a good thing.
On a car related note. Too much port work on your head will result in a net LOSS of power. Don't ask for the details, just take my word on this.

Back on topic. I thought the gubmint was denying my right to goof off at work last night by not letting me get to EM.
