• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

So that would be 11 pm EST then ...

OKAY everyone get your valium ready ... or your tranquilizers or whatever it is you're going to need to see you through this outage!!

:bump:
 
I prepared for it ... I shut down at 10:30 EST and took a couple valium and hit the bed ... I didn't miss a thing! LOL!

:jump:
 
I do not think it was down at all...

Took my drugs ... chamomile tea at 11:30 pm and signed off...

I was waiting for it to be down... I crashed before I knew it...:isadizzy:
 
it was an email from data center warning me, so maybe they did not do it or they did and only minutes it took, I just do not know.
I am only the messenger.
 
HUH? I never missed a beat.. but then I was happily downing my 3rd glass of very expensive wine and a lovely steak and shrimp dinner in the company of my boss and co-workers ( on the boss' tab), went off to the Casino for an hour to wait for my wife and home to bed..

Was there a stressful moment of deprivation at the Outhouse? :wiggle:
