[leftofthedial]

[hobbit709]

1. Me too

[Solly Mack]

(for me anyway)

[HamdenRice]

3. It seemed to a few minutes back nt

[OneGrassRoot]

4. me, too. totally dropped offline for a few minutes. n/t

[Nite Owl]

5. Me too

seems a little better now, I couldn't pull up a thread at all a few minutes ago.

[Jackpine Radical]

6. Damn slow for me too.

I was wondering whether it was the Second Coming or a nuclear attack on Iran, but I was thinking SOMETHING must be in progress.

[leftofthedial]

7. seems to have recovered a bit

now

[havocmom]

14. LOL Something in progress? Tests of Rove's Emergency News Blackout System?

So, is Gonzales going to the Hill tomorrow? ;)

[Jackpine Radical]

24. Oooooooh--Best paranoid theory so far today!!

Congratulations.

27. I'm great at such things when home sucking down cough meds

Also get my tin foil from COSTCO on the BIG ROllS

Trying to break into comedy, but difficult at my advanced age ;)

29. Too bad we don't have a Costco atound here.

We have to get our tinfoil at MallWart, and it just isn't as effective at blocking the mind control rays. But what can you expect from MallWart?

Actually, this whole line of discussion isn't as funny as it might be--probly because I just got home from doing a psych commitment evaluation on a REALLY delusional crazy lady.

8. The Slowskys would approve.

[havocmom]

9. Not just you.

Took me lots of tries to get on and manage to go to a thread. Had to come in through the front door rather than directly to the Latest Page, which is where my bookmark takes me.

Am I missing a big news story that has us swamped? Or is Karl just mad at us again? Yesterday, had all sorts of trouble getting onto AmericaBlog

[Warpy]

10. It took me nearly an hour to log on

It's the board, not us.

[Robbien]

11. great. This time my section of the tubes is speeding along as normal

nice. For once the slow down missed us.

[Pachamama]

12. Must be because we are all drinking decaf, organic, fair trade coffee...

:wink:

Just kidding....there was a post elsewhere on the topic of organic fair trade coffee being at jeopardy.....

13. I just rebooted.

Cause it was crawling and I thought it might be on my end.

[Lone_Star_Dem]

15. Glad to hear others have been having problems today

I open a tab and go about my business while it loads. It's been taking several minutes for pages to load completely at times.

[GregD]

16. ya, I just rebooted but it's still slow

[ncrainbowgrrl]

17. Working fine for me.

:shrug:

[flyarm]

18. bad for me too and almost impossible to post anything!! eom

[flyarm]

20. i rebooted 3 times..still bad and still slow!! eom

[n2doc]

19. No slow for me but strange

I started a thread, which gave me an error message. Then I looked at my DU, and no thread. So I posted again. Looked in GD and both threads were there, but only the second in latest. Never seen that happen. Also a lot of double postings today.

[Iwasthere]

21. use the ip instead the next time this happens

http://216.158.28.198

I think all is well now but that was the only way I could get on earlier. DNS issues at the server end i suspect.

[in_cog_ni_to]

22. S-L-O-W this morning. I dumped some files and it's better now, but was horrible earlier. n/t

[bbgrunt]

23. I have had problems getting into DU for the past 3 days.

It won't connect. It is getting rather frustrating. Once in a while I do get in, but something is wrong.

[Bake]

25. Naaaah, it's just you.

Running like a rabbit for me. Of course, having said that, it'll turn to molasses now!

26. Anybody have a problem with the search function?

I was trying to search GD late 2006, early 2007. Absolutely nothing showed up.

28. Yesterday, I could not get on for over an hour.
