Howdy

So, nothing is really new. I'm poor, my living situation is awful, EF still hasn't made money since AdSense dropped us, and I'm a sad panda.

My cell phone is currently off, as I'm broke. Normally, that wouldn't be such a big deal, as I've discovered Google Voice, thanks to Ace. However, I applied for new ads with Ads4Dough, hoping they can muster more than the minuscule amount of money Project Wonderful has been, and I was denied due to them being unable to reach me.

On top of that, we've been having less traffic and posts lately. While I've been optimizing the site for performance (so it hopefully loads much faster), I'm far too depressed and unmotivated to make a bunch of topics to talk about stuff.

In other news, we'll be moving to a server Stroh is having built once it's done being built (we're currently on a temp server). After that, we shouldn't have to move ever again at all.

My computer business is very slow, and any other business I'd be involved in like web design or hosting is non-existent. After I finish resolving EF's potential performance problems, and later move to the new server, I think I'll be focusing on real-life issues like getting work and finding our own place (many of you probably know our current living situation, which is, to say the least, not good). Also, you should all know, the server is being a bit slow lately, so, it's not just the website itself.

On the brighter side of things, I prettied up my directory indices (Fuck you Firefox, it is so a word!), so they look all fancy now. Also, Firefox made a leap from 3.0.12 or 13 to 3.5.2, so, you guys may want to update as well, if you haven't already. It seems generally more stable, but, for some reason seems to be laggier on scrolling, not updating certain parts of the screen as quickly as others.

This post brought to you at the behest of Kaze, who said we needed a new front page post. Woo.

I will make a flood of posts then, in order to encourage more posting from others.

I'll see if I can't get some more traffic in here...

Thanks a lot guys, either one would be really helpful, but, this wasn't a cry for help or anything. I was just posting because Kaze pointed out that there hadn't been a front page post in a while, and suggested that he might do it if I didn't.

I do appreciate stuff like this though. =]

I'd do the front page posts if I knew how to do them...(I'm still working on finding a way to increase traffic...)

While it would look nice to have arc over the doors to this place, I think ark might serve our "surviving a flood" purposes more.

Well, godspeed.

Well, if the arc were placed under wherever the torrent was ushering forth from, and angled properly, it could cascade the flood back into the heavens.

Okay.
