    Fear and loathing the internet... I feel as though I have just gotten home from a terrible journey after an even worse acid trip. I still don't exactly what I've been though and may never have the answers. All I can tell you is that the site was down for three hours - maybe more.

    I found the problem and a fix just as randomly as they appeared from KNOWHERE. Now, I'm not scared anymore. I'm just lucky. I'll take luck.

    Anyway, this was a disastrous day full of consequences - but none that I can't handle. Tomorrow is a new day...

    And the future is bright.

    Sorry for the downtime fellas. We are working on something big and this was just minor setback.

  3. Its like a plane crash. Any one you can walk away from is a good one.
     
  4. As Deuce Roadster was fond of saying " Poop happens ":D HRP
     
  5. Glad you got it fixed, I was getting withdrawal shakes.

    Ever have one of those days at work? I just had one.

    I'd moan and groan, but who would listen? Of course, I just did anyway... And some of you listened... and those of you who did are probably all like, "What the hell does he have to bitch about?"

    And they have a point.

    Anyway, I'm done messing with this thing for now.

    Three hours on the floor, in a fetal position, reaching up every 70 seconds to refresh the screen...oh, the whimpering!!
     
  9. Hey a little wait is OK.
    I remember when you only found 0ne or two old cars in the local newspaper. And there were only one or two old timers to tell stories about the cars! And Hemmings only came once a month! Waiting a few hours doesn't seem like that much to me!
    Thanks to you Ryan, for all you do!
    Sorry you had a bad day!

    new format was nice , but one leetle complaint the white writing against a light grey back ground was very hard to read , even with glasses had to squint can you very the colors a bit to make it easier to see

    I'm glad that all I have to worry about is paint. No technical difficulties with paint on canvas. At least, none that can't be solved with a White Russian.
     
  27. The E.M.T.'s finally left. The sirens and flashing lights have been turned off and the neighbors went back in their houses. I'm better now. Close one.

    It's no different than going out to a car you just parked, and getting nothing when you turn the key. Then it firing right up after three hours of checking everything a hundred times. Just another one of life's great mysteries.

    Like they say, it's not what happened that matters, it's how you handle it. It looks like you handled it just fine Ryan.

    But would she have listened?
    Today a bike site I have been on decided to go to a PAY site so those of us too cheap to pay were locked out.
    The Yelp food site is off for some reason.
    And the HAMB was down.
    At least I could play on the station wagon site...... But it was very slow.
    I actually visited my wife. I think her name is Dollie!:eek:
