Here we are again.
At least here I am.

"we're fixing it. dont sweat"

Why did it have to faint on FAF?

I'm here, spammy!!!

Good to see you.

You too! I guess we are the only ones who noticed.

pocky sent me an e-mail a minute ago. He knows it too.

Cuteness overdose alert:

I don't know the proper English name of this rodent. In a nutshell it has the body of a hare or rabbit, tail of a squirrel, fur of a chinchilla.
Inhabits dry rocky mountainous areas of Peru, Bolivia, Chile and Argentina.
The local residents are often called the animal ardilya (in Spanish that means "squirrel").

Thirdeye makes pictures out of boredom.

And aviary doesn't store them properly.

Interesting: plime is down, and I can not save to aviary either.

Yesterday I have watched "Mamma Mia!",
today I will watch "The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert".

Here's me.

When Priscilla QOTD was first out and new I tried to go and see it at Aberystwyth Arts Centre.

The film snapped twice in the first few minutes and then the third time the projector caught fire.

The projectionist came out and asked us all to leave the theatre as rapidly as possible, implying that a small amount of panic was acceptable in this circumstance due to the highly toxic nature of the fumes from burning film.

Clearly I survived and then they screened the film again one week later without mishap, so it all turned out well in the end.

This thing keeps going down on me.
Yesterday when the karma came back, I have quickly updated my karma record of plimates.
Even if we get "?" when plime comes back, at least there will be a recent snapshot of karma levels.

This I'm finding stable. Plime I get nothing for.

It's not responding at the other end to my gentle probings either.

Nslookup returns 67.215.66.132 for plime.

But if I try to open it in a browser, I get a dns error, resulting in the following diagnostic data:

It feels like we're camping out when we come here.

Fancy a marshmallow to roast?

traceroute dies away after 38.104.102.62
I wonder if that is their gteway.

*goes to look for firewood, and a good marshmallow stick*

Good - a details man.

Without that kind of thinking I'd just be sat here holding a marshmallow with the distinct feeling that something is missing.

I usually end up doing all the work when camping.

Finding firewood, cooking, rationing water/cigarettes, babysitting the ones who lose their marbles(and making sure they don't try to drive anywhere), etc..

There is a new brand of pocky, at least for me it is new:
