Some time ago I switched hosts. Now that I’ve experienced interminable load times with no sign of of a fix for a week while using Midphase / ANhosting, I’m back with lunarpages.

How not to impress a customer looking for support

• The slow load times are because of this specific WP plugin.

Okay, so I’ll just disable all of my plugins on all of my sites and shoot that theory to hell. You betcha.

• The reason our CPanel is so slow to load/freezes today is because we’re doing server maintenance. We’ve switched so many of our customers to your server that other users are hogging all of the bandwidth.

Right. But what about the past seven days with the same problems? Uh-huh.

• Google is taking up too much bandwidth by indexing all of the sites on your server during the day, so we’re limiting access to everyone until the early morning hours.

I didn’t even get up early in the morning to check that one out. Give me a break.

Bye bye Midphase. So long ANhosting. I don’t think I’m gonna cry.*

*With apologies to the Everly Brothers.

Updated June 4:Yes, I’m right. It’s all a scam. And their government is in on the scam. Big surprise there.

But who really needs to be lectured by countries like this – and there are plenty of them spouting their bullshit and pleading for assistance. My suggestion: get your own house in order before you come here to critique mine.

Kyoto? Forget it, pal.

Go fish in your own poverty-stricken, crime-ridden and polluted country – if there are any fish left alive, that is.

This blog post was a real eye-opener. Although, I must admit that I was aware of much of it through personal experience.

Crystal Head Vodka

The joke just keeps on getting better.

The Province of Ontario has banned the sale of vodka in its state-owned and controlled liquor stores – as if Ontario wasn’t enough of a bad joke already in its quest for goodness. Long known as Ontario the good by many of it’s citizens, the silly little province has chosen to again make itself the laughing-stock of the nation by outlawing a bottle of vodka.

“The image of the human skull is the thing that’s really problematic for us,” said Liquor Control Board of Ontari-ari-ari-o spokesman Chris Layton.

I’m touched by Layton’s concern for the crystal skull’s representation of death, but I’m thinking that he’s had one too many to make any sensible decisions in his quest to keep Ontario-the-good safe from the consumers of vodka.

Why not just ban it all?

it’s all because of:

1. Evil.
2. The devil.
3. Women working outside the home.
4. Television and the internet.
5. A lack of confession and daily prayer.
6. The New York Times.
7. The Masons.
8. Jews.
9. God-killers. (Oops, that’s part of #8.)
10. Homosexuals.
11. An exuberant affection.

The worst part of all that: I’m not making any of it up.

How pathetic.

Retired Bishop Giacomo Babini

Giacomo Babini, a retired Bishop of the Italian town of Grosseto, told the Catholic Pontifex website that the Catholic pedophile scandal is being orchestrated by the

“eternal enemies of Catholicism, namely the freemasons and the Jews, whose mutual entanglements are not always easy to see through… I think that it is primarily a Zionist attack, in view of its power and refinement. They do not want the church, they are its natural enemies. Deep down, historically speaking, the Jews are God-killers.”

That ought to put the fear of God into all of them.

I wonder how many Jewish boys were bent over the Catholic church’s alter and buggered? My guess would be none.

I’m thinking that it won’t be long before the people professing to speak for the Catholic church will bring author Dan Brown into the equation in their now-desperate search for a scapegoat. Any scapegoat.
