1. There's been a lot of interruptions the last couple of days

Probably some sort of server equipment change of some kind is going on.

11. That worked and i thought he ran off with the money Fresno paid him

I do like to see what the wild right wing are saying. I even turn on talk radio to see what is in the wind. I still have trouble with Fox.

5. Apparently, trouble with his registrar

Maybe they found out he registered with wonky info or something. If we're reeeeal lucky, he'll lose it and some happy miscreant will snatch it before he can regroup.

6. Be funny if it was a 'liberal' miscreant.

Heads up, guys. :evilgrin:

10. Feh. Too late...

Good news: the registrar has finally been updated. Bad news: it may take hours to a full day for the changes to propagate. See the current discussion for more information.

7. I wish there was a way...

that we could help him lose it. I'd pay for address any day! Turn it into a pro-American site instead of a pro-Bush site.

[sampsonblk]

8. Or turn it into a

human rights web site. Wouldn't THAT piss them off?

[izzie]

12. Pro Darwin. That would be fun to read.

The flat world people are back.

9. apparently

God DON'T love them freepers.

13. I wonder if they know that tax payers money set this INTERNET up?

Oh well what can I say...........
