Woohoo! We're back baby!

It's nice to be back after four days of this!And, as goes without saying, it was Q-Bert's fault.

So we just set a record for down time at over 72 hours. Particularly annoying for those of us that also use Q-Bert for email. (Myself, Guba, Stormblade). Kudos for Q-Bert for keeping us updated through Twitter although I am sure some of you didn't even notice. I would like to point out that refusing to update Twitter doesn't prevent you from reading Twitter. But its okay Luddite, really.

Q-Bert was over at my house on Saturday visiting with his family and shared a somewhat long and complicated diatribe about why my site is down. I share with you pretty much verbatim what I remember hearing and understanding.

Yeah I know, sometimes I have no idea why he bothers to talk to me at all.

Anyway, welcome back.

I often use the herdofcats website to test our proxy, I figure its pretty safe, no one else would go there to have cached content, usually pretty quick, sometime I even get to see part of it is blocked because of naughty content.

Well when i was getting lovely error messages on Friday I decided I needed a new site to test up. I'm up for suggestions.
