In the panoply of villains, Ryerson is a lower-level bureaucrat at best. He aspires to greater things, but deep down he knows he doesn't have the stones for it.
I could get the whole intertubes just fine, but Blogger was a no-go. And I mean any Blogger site: Front page, comment thread, what-have-you. The only way I could successfully see any blog was by running it through Google's translator service. I thought about going and playing with a proxy server, but I was way too lazy.
Sounds a lot like what was going with me, although even Google's main page was also flaking out on me. Of course this morning it worked long enough for me to see your complaint and complain myself... and then I couldn't get at anything again... stupid interwebs...
I blame Dennis Ryerson.
ReplyDeleteToo inept for serious villainy.
ReplyDeleteThis is serious; a massive buildup of unleashed snark could be dangerous.

ReplyDeleteI can't access mine right now either... grumbles.
ReplyDeleteI am too old. You said "tube" and I am thinking "standing on a vacuum tube, somebody's foot is going to get warm".
ReplyDeleteDuh.
Yeah, but it's fun to blame him :)
ReplyDeleteI'm still having problems... I'm running tubeless, so I'm at a loss. Maybe I need to open the door so the interwaves have a clear path.
ReplyDeleteI was having the same issue last night. Maybe someone stepped on the tube here in DE and then moved west?
ReplyDeleteFred,
ReplyDeleteI suspect it's a different issue.

ReplyDeleteGoogle shouldn't have p.o.'ed the Chicoms.
Yeah the tubes are sometimes fickle. Occasionally a DSLAM throws up or the tubes lose B+ voltage. Oh, I can go with Tam's theory on the Chicoms!
ReplyDeleteSo that's what caused the flood in Nashville!
ReplyDeleteJust think if you were cut off from Wikipedia!

I was actually contemplating that all day...
The Senate needs to launch an investigation into the sudden Hoosier Snark Crisis...
ReplyDelete"Just think if you were cut off from Wikipedia!"
ReplyDeleteI'd assume that was the arctic monkeys' fault.
@Tam,
ReplyDelete"I'd assume that was the arctic monkeys' fault."
LOL! So much snark while I try to be technical and a bit snarky! Love it! I just don't have the skills yet!
Could have been the Wild Giraffe. They are kind of tall, you know.
