Has anybody had any trouble connecting to this site over the last couple of days? Dreamhost is claiming that their DNS server is under DDOS attack. Obviously, I’m unhappy about any connection problems, since that is what drove me away from sucky 1and1. One of the commenters on that site suggests switching to EveryDNS. If […]
I received another email from the theocrat who wrote that email in the last post. She’s a little less derogatory, but no less ignorant, this time around.

((((((((((Billy)))))))))) the Atheist has an article about yet another attempt to find Noah’s Ark. Those people crack me up. Clinging desperately to a […]
(Comic by Cectic) Our good friend and blogging goddess Dana Hunter has gone above and beyond the call of duty.
