WHAT HAPPENED? by Steve Nadis

For those of you who are wondering–and I’m sure many must be though they are too shy to admit it–BLOG.COM was out of commission for part of the weekend (and possibly carrying over a bit into Monday as well) for “routine maintenance.” My blog has not been the same since. All my precious “LINKS,” which you might call my lifeline to the real world, have been severed, leaving “Call Me Snake” isolated and out of touch–a dangerous situation for a person like myself who tends to get carried away. My personal profile is gone, as is my mug shot. My treasured “blog stats” have also vanished, and other features you’ve come to depend on have changed as well, if not disappeared outright.

Rest assured that we are working on this problem so that Call Me Snake will soon have the same, familiar, cozy feel you’ve come to depend on. I’ll only be a minute. A jiffy really. Won’t be long now. Just click your heels and count to whatever it is you’re supposed to count to. Any real (non-imaginary) number will do, I expect. And while you’re doing that, I’ll be taking care of things from my end. And before you know it, things will be back to normal. In fact, better than normal. This is going to be a relaunch, as in: Call Me Snake Fully Loaded. (I’m not really “loaded,” in case you’re wondering. Maybe I should have said: Call Me Snake Slightly Toasted…)

  1. Sorry about your blog problem. I’m sure it is very annoying. Do you think it was related to the spam problem? Did some of your comments get "eaten?" Because my last one is gone.

    Thanks, Windfall. These are the trials we bloggers face. No one said it would be easy… (Actually, somebody did tell me that: "As easy as 1-2-3." I think that’s how she put it.)

    Do you think it has anything to do with Dr. Max’s return? He seems to be making brief appearances on selected blogs. Perhaps his renewed presence overwhelmed Blog.com.

  4. Snake says:

    Hi Roses — I’d rather not try to pin all the blame on the good Dr., as I’m glad to see he’s back. Plus the fact that he said he cannot even leave a message due to aforementioned techinical difficulties…

  5. Your blog is really messed up. I mean, I can’t access it very easily - nor your comments. It keeps saying database error.

  6. PS that verification box is NOT MESSED up/

    Thanks Windfall for keeping me informed, and for your patience during these trying times.
