Boyhowdie, I guess I shouldn't have used the word "flop" because that's what my server did.
There are advantages to free server space, cost being the most obvious. The down side of it is that you tend to sink to the bottom of the list when things go wrong and you go off-line for a day. Or two. Or two and a half, as you may have noted.
But I'm back, and I'd like to steal a trick from Wrapped Up Like a Douche, and give you all a look at a spam mail subject line. It's so abstract/obscure that I've left it in my inbox, sort of a spam haiku.

Isn't it beautiful?
Speaking of beautiful, this is the weather the tourist bureau promised you when you thought you'd like to visit Florida in the winter. My office window is open, and the air is mild, balmy, slightly moist. The sky is a hazy shade of French blue (or bleu). I can see the skyline of South Beach off to my right. Don't you wish you were here, right now?
Well, except for the part about it's my OFFICE window. Which means that I am in my office, and not actually slapping back the mojitos on the sands of South Beach. On the other hand, and with me, there is always an other hand, it's not like I'm actually working at the moment, either.
For those of you who follow the trials and tribulations I suffer dealing with the witless wonders in the PR office, I won the last round. The two designs (theirs and mine) were offered up to the committee and my design won hands down. In fact, there was even something said to the effect that design "A" was soooooooooo much more logical, and easier to figure out where information would be found. Yep. I guess the old man didn't waste his money when I got that degree in design, after all. Smug? Yes. Y qual es su punto?
Finally, for those of you in the South Florida area, or who plan to be there next weekend, my husband, the RLA* will be exhibiting some very exciting new work at the South Miami Arts & Crafts Festival on the 21 & 22 of February. He'll be in booth #1. He used to do super realism, but this past year he's changed his direction. I can't describe it, but I'll try.
Be-bop psychedelic surrealism with a little influence from low-rider art and 50's tiki/cocktail culture. Sounds good, doesn't it?
