Everything is that slow. Something is going on with the backbones.

Yup, just Pelican for me. Everything else is still pretty snappy.

As pelican parts hits the "auxilliary nuclear power" switch-



*PERSONALLY- I was thinking since the spybots were dredging the site and found PPOT's most commonly used terms were "dragon ass jeans" and a "well set up 944", and then melded them as best it could into a product it thought we would buy -that pic posted earlier, and no one had actually wanted it, that the spybots attacked, all hell had broken loose, and the site crashed.

edit... actually what I felt was... "Ah crap, NOW what am I going to do with my life?"

Pelican was not available to me for a bit, around 5:30pm CST.

Other parts of the internet are periodically slow. This is ongoing, currently experiencing.

There was a problem with one of the ISPs in CA today.
Guessing Pelican was hit by that.

Damn...I want my Bitcoins back then! At one point earlier the forums were actually taken down too. This caused me great anguish today

I'm still gonna blame Tabs for the Internet's draggin' azz tho'.
