Well today A Cursor often leads to considerable Profanity
And a CD, Well it's a dang poor bank account, but then there are not good bank accounts any more though there are good investments.

I liked that.. The article lead to another article which was also interesting.

I've had no problems accessing anything I access this AM. And this is the end of my AM Internet run right here.

High Error Rate can mean that a software update went wonky.. It happens, or it can indicate hardware issues, but hardware issues on that many computers at the same time... NOT possible.
It can also mean an attack in progress.

Who knows

The article it led to talked about a DDoS Attack that made access to, among other things Twitter somewhat hard... I'm thinking of our poor (take that two different ways both correct) Orange "leader".. Not being able to access Twitter and twit away would be painful for him.

For me. Well I logged into Twitter a couple days ago ... The computers fainted in shock (I have an account, first time I've accessed it in like 2 years).
