*Scheduled* downtime 3/30/06


In an attempt to fix the obvious problems with the server stability we are doing an in-house server move. It should be fast and painless. We'll work on it tomorrow night, shouldn't take more than a couple hours.

I don't care if it's scheduled or not, I'm still going to click on that "notify staff of problem" email link about 1500 times.

Wait, I think we should click that link just once every 10 seconds or so...at least give Greg some incentive to get done quickly.

I'm stocking up on emergency supplies to prepare for tonight's PF outtage - flashlight, extra batteries, non-perishable food, can opener, bottled water, First Aid kit, extra clean underwear, American Crew pomade hair gel (must look good while I'm stressing out), microwave popcorn with no trans fat, and a plush Pooh Bear for comfort.

Good idea! Don't forget a manual can opener for any canned goods.

When is it going to happen? Why don't we have a time? I can't take the stress. I guess I'm just going to have to keep clicking every time I get the "server unavailable" message, just to be sure.

And just be warned that if it goes longer than a couple of hours, you and Tom and Moobie will start getting spam from me asking if everyone is all right!

In an attempt . . .
Hopefully successful!

Anyway, is there a particular time, e.g. 2200 CST?

Just to get in shape, I'm going to play, "The Ants Go Marching" so everyone can do their finger exercises. (Those who have had recent exposure to small children will understand this.) You wouldn't want to start a mouse clicking marathon without properly warming up first; we don't want any injuries.
