That’s right… it’s the Czech Republic now, isn’t it? Old habits die hard. Texas A&I University became Texas A&M University - Kingsville fifteen years ago and I still call it Texas A&I.

Not trying to be too much of a smart ass but there has not been a Czechoslovakia in a few years.

Parts unknown? I see the work of an intelligent designer… But the work of unseen supernatural agents should not be ruled out.

Wankers.

Looking forward to BPSDB.ORG.

And my eBay purchase of “Man of the Century” just arrived.

It turns out I zigged when I should have zagged. Here’s the deal…

Ever since Denyse published her “Enemies of Intelligent Design” post (I’m not pointing fingers, just giving a handy frame of reference), someone has been accessing the site through what appear to be dialup accounts in Italy, Czechoslovakia and parts unknown. In the space of an hour, they access every page on the site about 20 times. It wasn’t causing huge problems, but it was slowing things down during peak hours.

I had to modify a file to block these IPs, but instead of modifying the file, I overwrote an already existing file that Wordpress needed for site navigation. Fortunately, there was a backup, so things are now running smoothly… until I fuck things up again.

Seems OK now.

Oddly, WordPress.com was acting wonky for a while today as well.
