@ furrykef	:	(25 July 2015 - 03:35 AM) When was that? Depending on when it was, it might have been a DNS issue. Those should be gone now.

@ Uncle Ben	:	(24 July 2015 - 10:10 PM) Red said he couldnt get one
@ furrykef	:	(24 July 2015 - 11:25 AM) Also I still have to figure out how to set up our e-mail accounts on the new host.
@ furrykef	:	(24 July 2015 - 08:19 AM) As soon as I figure out how to restore it. Sorry, I know I said it'd be done by now, but I didn't expect to have to put up with this DNS crap and other issues that popped up.
@ Uncle Ben	:	(24 July 2015 - 07:56 AM) So when's the black theme coming back??
@ Uncle Ben	:	(24 July 2015 - 07:56 AM) "Should"
@ furrykef	:	(24 July 2015 - 07:27 AM) That DNS took longer to propagate properly than I thought it would. Now we should be back for good, though.
@ furrykef	:	(23 July 2015 - 08:48 PM) Or it might be because Bluehost finally got around to that server wipe (one week after we'd asked for it) and that wiped out our DNS settings. I'm not sure which and I don't really care. In any case, we've severed our last ties with Bluehost, so this will not happen again.
@ furrykef	:	(23 July 2015 - 08:08 PM) Looks like Bluehost yanked our DNS since our hosting account expired. That's why the site went down a while ago. But as you can see, it's fixed now.
@ Misk	:	(23 July 2015 - 04:55 PM) No, they do not.
@ furrykef	:	(23 July 2015 - 04:27 AM) The goggles do nothing?
@ Misk	:	(22 July 2015 - 05:50 PM) My eyes.
@ furrykef	:	(22 July 2015 - 12:24 PM) Looks like forum uploads might have been broken since last night. That should be fixed now too.
@ furrykef	:	(22 July 2015 - 01:33 AM) Heh, whoops! Server went down for a few mins when I borked the config. Looks like it's back up now.
@ Uncle Ben	:	(21 July 2015 - 09:09 PM) It looked like a napkin
@ ILOVEVHS	:	(21 July 2015 - 09:04 PM) Fan-fuckin-tastic.
@ furrykef	:	(21 July 2015 - 08:25 PM) As for the beaver picture while the forum was down, I think Tim drew it. On a napkin.
@ furrykef	:	(21 July 2015 - 08:24 PM) No kiddin' about that "Finally!", Shadow. I am so mad at Bluehost for never responding to our support ticket. I submitted it early Friday morning and they still haven't answered it!
@ Uncle Ben	:	(21 July 2015 - 06:37 PM) Maybe he did that himself

So today is the third day one of my POS machines wasn't working. Its a wireless one, uses the cell phone signals to work etc. Really handy. Anyways last few days it has gotten no signal.. Shitty. So I've called up the company we use for our POS machines (small company in Quebec, only like 2 english guys in the thing that are the tech dudes). So I call up on Monday, explain my issue to someone who can't understand me and I can't understand her. All I really get out of it is "tech guy will call you soon". Thats cool, cause I know the tech guy speaks perfect english.

Well Monday goes by, no call for me. Okay, call again Tuesday, same thing. Today I call twice (cause I'm getting mad now). Second time I find out he has called buy someone keeps hanging up on him. Sooo...I'm a tad confused at that. So I go over to the main lady who answers the phones and go "By chance have you been getting any phone calls from 'so and so company'" she replies with "YES! Stupid tele market people probably trying to switch over to their POS service! We have a company we work with. So I just hang up on them. They have been getting really persistent the last few days!"

So this was followed by me just.. in awe. Cause I've been trying to reach these guys since Monday, and it turns out they have called back 5 times. Buuuut get hung up on.

Regardless we had a good laugh on it...her face went bright red when I told her, followed by a really quiet "oh my god..."

That was my day. Tomorrow, I just may be lucky to get a hold of the tech guy and fix that machine.

What does "POS" stand for up yonder? Around here, it stands for "Piece Of Shit".

In other news, I'm $180 richer, have cake, and am a year older.

Also, our tomato plants are starting to produce ripe tomatoes. They're perty good.

It stands for Piece of Shit everywhere. Except in the business world where it is "Point of Sale" aka your debit card machine or credit machine.

It should be noted that the two meanings are not necessarily mutually exclusive.

It can also stand for "Prince of Space".

Which IS synonymous with "Piece of Shit", to be fair.
