I wasn’t able to access SEB or the backend from work since late yesterday afternoon. At first I thought perhaps my job was blocking the site, but I was getting a “No route to host” error which is a tad unusual. Traceroute showed that it wasn’t work blocking the site as it was getting quite far out onto the net, but something between here and there was borked. Oddly enough if I turned off the proxy in the browser and tried again it worked just fine, but I need the proxy on to access company email. Now, just before I’m due to go home, it’s working again.
So thats why I didn’t post anything today. Consider this an open thread on the off-chance that I don’t get around to posting anything else once I get home.
Open thread – Woo Hoo! I was wondering why there weren’t any new SEB posts, Les. Thought maybe they padlocked your ‘puter at work.
We still don’t have a new Senator here in Minnesota. But Franken is closing in on Coleman as the recount progresses. The lawsuits are flying and it’s getting interesting. We’ve become the new Florida – just no hanging chads.
Hope everyone has a fantastic weekend!
Fact- All penguins are called Geoff, apart from Geoff’s freind- Keith.

Well Les are you sure you weren’t hax0r3d? just saying that sounds kind of odd that that would happen, but what the hell do I know.
The video quality is pretty good too. This will become my latest time waster.
One of my favorite bits from Holy Grail is on there.
Isn’t that the error you get when the NSA is tapping onto the line?
Maybe it was the Vatican Guards hacking your site.
It had to be the Illuminati. They do things like that when they get bored.
