Ok, so I've been trying to get to the Northern Fox Media site for the past 2 hours, and I cannot get a connection to it. The connection attempt times out every time I launch Firefox, or click refresh, or try to click on a link from somewhere else to get there.

Can someone look into why this is happening please?

Certainly. I can look into it for you

We had to swap a hard drive this morning at 0800 PST. We just got everything back up and running and the last updates installed. Should be fine now.

I've noticed this before on coffee powered servers. Every once and a while, one of the drives will over-caffeinate and crash. There should be way outside of the O/S to regulate how much caffeine a drive can allocate.

The problem was not over-caffeinating, but getting the drive to switch gears when we would switch from coffee in the day to tea in the evening. It was like a kid pouting and throwing a tantrum because it was not getting its way. We managed to inject some red-rose code, so everything is fine.

Good thing I did not include blueberry muffins. Oh the headaches then.

As a matter of fact... yes. And the blasted droids escaped yet again in the middle of the night. The patio door was left open, and the red wagon was missing. We found a piece of paper in the backyard with a drawing of our area and a bunch of dashes drawn like a path, and located an X on it. It must be the map they used...
