I’m exhausted.

I feel like a … well, I’m too tired to make an allusion.

The email issue is a serious one.

The new IP was never directly involved in any spamming, but was in the same group as another IP that WAS and then stopped. So, they’re not even active anymore. And nobody in our little family of IPs near us is spamming, either.

So, it’s like our cousin IP got out of jail, but we’re suspected of the same crime.

But only by SBCGlobal and ATT.

“Fill out the form!”

I did. They respond that they are NOT blocking me.

But they are. They still are.

What next?

Just a quick note
to all that haven’t
come to this blog
to read the developments

The new server is in, and all of DreamForge Media’s clients have been moved!

I’ll have some boring ass server photos up later on.

For the present, we now have room to grow a bit more.

Thanks to everyone involved!

We’re finnish-ed!

I’m still planning to put up a dozen or two pictures from the Salt Grass Trail Ride, but a few other things are grabbing my attention this morning.

First up, I’ll have to do research on Alison’s monitor. Her LCD screen just went south.

Blinked out without a sign of trouble. Thank God she finished up her latest manuscript yesterday and sent it off. I mean, we do have a spare monitor around here, and she’s got her laptop, and then there’s always (gulp!) THIS machine… but the spare monitor is smaller than what she’s been used to (a paltry 15in!) so I’ll have to fix or replace her LCD monitor quickly to get things back on an even keel around here. There’s always another manuscript due it seems… and the muse must not be interrupted!

Secondly, the parts for DreamForge Media’s new server are due today, via UPS. The UPS guy is used to just hauling small boxes from Amazon to our door… he’ll have a nice server chassis for us this afternoon! I already have some of the parts, and so I’ll start building it today, and flick the power switch later on tonight. More on the whole server thing later, I think. I don’t want to jinx things before I know all the hardware works…

In the meantime, keep your eyes open for the photo dump I’ll be doing with the horses I played paparazzi to yesterday. The Salt Grass Trail Ride is one of several trail rides, and they all converge at Memorial Park this evening. The parade of all the trail riders occurs tomorrow morning, rain or shine.

In the meantime, check out this picture. What’s the white stuff around that one nostril? Someone using Colombian Marching Powder??
