Server outage: Tues Dec 29 - sorry!
Ran out of disk space, says the admin.
Probably related to getting hit by a pile of traffic reading about the Metro's cardboard boat tail.

When?
What time I mean?
Did it already happen?
Is this a time warp?

Good taste is hard to expain.......
I'm amazed how many people care about a cardboard boat tail......
reminds me of a recent poll in Georgia to pick a slogan for their licence plates......
second place was "3 million people.....same last name"
I guess the moral of this stories is ........... wow.........I forgot........

Doing weird things to cars to save fuel gets people very worked up. One of the top sites in the Netherlands was the source of the TWO server crashes we had: GeenStijl : 15% zuiniger rijden met iedere auto!
Happened this morning, Funny. I'm glad you missed it. We were down for about an hour between the two episodes.

Wait till somebody combines the cardboard boattail on the back, with the clown nose on a pole in front from another thread.

I noticed I got a large number of linkback emails from that thread... As a result, I now filter linkback emails. I got tired of clicking the box and hitting SHIFT+3 to delete them.

Wasn't turning linkbacks notification off on the to-do list?
I'm getting more linkbacks than new post notifications recently...
On the other hand that's good, since the word is spreading...
