I see the inter-interwebs are broken. Aargh...

May as well then hangout at the Watercooler.
 
Broken here as well.

Got a power failure this morning at office, but was heading out to site.

Upon my return, power was restored, but intert00bs was down. Only myBB is working fine, rest is very sluggish.

Bleh...
 
The water cooler tank is empty , please google the company`s phone number that does the refills... o wait nevermind.
