Not that I'm paranoid, but I don't want to feel the kind of fear and loss so many of you went through last year.

So, before trick time (hindsight is 20/20 vision, isn't it?):

-when a site no longer exists you get a screenful of nothing with some little message at the top about Error 404.

-how can Max, or anyone, create a thread from jail awaiting arraignment or whatever they call it down there?

-if any authority were kind enough to allow a few days of a closing sign to be available, would it be a thread? Not likely.

Wait a second, what am I saying, "how can anyone...from jail"? There's gotta be sand, which is silica which goes (I guess) into silicon...file the spoon just right for some iron (do computers need that?)...lead solder on the copper pipes...

Max, please play nice this year.

Thanks for the warning, all. We with PTSD now know enough not to check in until the 2nd, just to be safe. And we also have the less safe options of doubling the meds and checking in anyhow. Around here April Fool's expires at noon on the 1st. Saves a lot of late night crowding at emergency wards for heart symptoms, I s'pose.

So, Max, ya gonna tell us you won the lottery? Got pregnant? Guess I'll find out on the 2nd.
