We’re ba-a-ack
“Mother? What is it? I’m coming, Mother!” (shriek shriek shriek shriek...)
Yes, the site was totally down, due to a hailstorm on the mysql database caused by evil spammers. All together now: “Spammers must die! SPAMMERS MUST DIE!”
Anyway… for future reference please put this link in your bookmarks; it’s where I will post updates in case the site cacks out. Which I hope won’t happen again, or at least not for a very long time, now that things have been moved to a different server.
PS: I’ve been attempting to make the site more readable and easier to navigate through. The font is set at Verdana/Arial/sans-serif at 12 pts and you can make it larger or smaller with your browser “increase/decrease text” menu option. The line height is set at 150%, to cut down on that crowded look. The big “Tim Blair” in the header at the top of every page is now a link to the main site page. More visual ease to come. If anyone has any suggestions on what would make the site easier for them to read/see/stare at for hours on end please feel free to leave your suggestions in the comments where they MAY (note the emphasis) be implemented to the best of my ability. Please keep in mind that I’m no credentialed web maven, nor have I stayed at a Holiday Inn Express recently.
