If DU happens to be down, for 16 hours tomorrow...
...do you think you'll have withdrawal symptoms?

I'm a little afraid of it, myself!

:scared:

1. Nope!
I have to work in the morning, and in the afternoon I'll play with my new kitten and watch a movie. Life will go on. :)

4. My dear KC2!
Hell yes, I'll have withdrawal symptoms!

I'm having them now...:scared:

I'm trying to think of things to do to keep me away from my computer!

And actually there are quite a few things to do!

I just might live through it!

:hi:

15. I had to spend last week with only 10-15 minutes of Internet per day!
I started doing really difficult Sudoku and crossword puzzles. As long as I have the Internet, I can spend some time with Bartcop and Arianna. I might even make it over to Common Dreams for a change. But I will miss you guys!:(

20. Hey, ever heard of this:

?

I don't remember how I first heard of this, but will pass it on. It is a contingency site in the event of calamity...or if DU were to ever be hacked (I think.)

Good to know in any case, right.

Oh, and KC2: love you. Hang tough, hon! :hi:


See y'all---hopefully---after the blackout. ;)

26. I start twitching when the Top Ten is a couple of hours late
When JeffR gets delayed with the DUzies my friends Jack, Jim, José, and the Captain come into play.

I'll try to sleep through most of it.
