Storm closin’ in

Recovered from the Wayback Machine.

They’ve issued a damaging hail warning, but it may not get this far. I suppose it’s only a matter of time before Golden Girl looks like metallic swiss cheese.

But, oh, I love these storms.

Storm a brewin’

Recovered from the Wayback Machine.

I will never tire of the storms here. As long as I don’t have to drive through them, watching them, feeling them, smelling them is a wonder. An absolute wonder.

I actually felt and smelled this storm before looking out the window and seeing the clouds. Your hairs stand up on your arms, and you can taste a slightly acrid taste, smell the ozone. They just put out a severe storm watch, and I’m not surprised with the heat and humidity preceding this one. Beautiful. Beautiful.

And much more fun than server stuff. Best of all, photographs! The only photos I could take of me working on the server is an increasingly red face. Not a pretty sight. No sirree.

Canceled move to new server

I’ve canceled the move to the new server and have renewed the site here at Hosting Matters while I think what best next to do. Hosting Matters responded very quickly to ensure that this site is maintained, so other than some momentary DNS confusion, this weblog shouldn’t be disrupted.

Also apologies for all the grumpiness surrounding Web Intellects. I should have just cut my loses when I saw how much Ensim impacts on the overall system. I’m too used to working directly with Unix to deal well with an application whose sole purpose is to buffer one from Unix.

Web Intellects has been kind enough to refund my money, which is cool.

So, business as usual, at least for now.

Thanks for bearing with me.
