I couldn't believe it . I was going through withdrawal symptoms, sweating along with chills, shaking and muscle aches. You don't miss your water until the well runs dry. :eek:

Same here. This site is something I can surf from work w/o issue as my PC churns the latest code I wrote. Hitting the news sites gets old after the second time around and EBay, well you know...
All of my brilliant posts from 4:25 am and on gone for eternity. the world is a darker place now.
No joke, I got so lost I had to send dwessell an email on SRD. I was getting the shakes
:nono: not compiled, database code. I need smaller datasets, clean data, faster CPU and as always, more ram. With most database work the data is never in the form needed for reporting and has to be twisted, bent, churned, heated, frozen, dried then steamed and dried again before it can be used to produce the results asked for. Three are ways to do this once and be done with it but that doesn't fit the business plan. Not complaining just the way it is.
There are packages called 'ETL' that can do all of the folding and bending of data and pump it into a data warehouse, I know...
Scary but true!
Like being homeless!
Since I can't control myself with the amount of time I spent on SRP, I'll say that I got more work done when the system was down that I have in a long time. Ugh, that's not something that I'm proud to admit.

Yeah I was compulsively checking it wondering what had happened!
Too bad we lost this morning's posts :(
I needed to contact JimR and had to track him down through other means and I needed to contact OldSchool as well.
Now I can't get Chrome to stop redirecting to SRD.
Based on the number of emails and phone calls we got regarding the short pause in service and the anxiety it caused, we have decided to offer special StraightRazorPlace Down Time Insurance to help us through any future situations. The premiums will be extremely high while the policy benefits will be surprising limited. This will be a programs similar to our 12 step program aimed at helping people out with RAD. As you know that program doesn't work either.
So make sure that you and all your friends are aware of this new offering and be the first in your neighborhood to own this wonderful policy.
Remember that David and the team here is always working for you and that kind of reassurance should be more than comforting to all.
Thanks for all the hard work David!!!!!
Best regards,
Lynn
I suspect many of us need to have some administrators/mods on pager. I get a little tick in my right eye when things even slow some. Geez I've only been coming here for a few months and I'm hard core hooked. I'll do bad things to employees that waste excessive time online but I have to admit I may spend just a little too much time scanning here as well as looking for razors, reading the Wiki db (a bit like reading the phone book now but much more interesting), and seeing what some of the characters here are up to. In all, a very satisfactory experience!
Let's see, so far RAD, HAD, SAD, SCAD, and now SRPRD. I'm running out of acronyms to justify this obsession. I wonder if any members here are shrinks, and if they may have diagnosed some type of compulsive disorder running rampant in the members here?
OK OK OK,
After the relentless questioning regarding the short intermission that we took for upgrading today, I must disclose the truth...............
The fictional friendship between Joel and I along with the allegation of vulgarity and a retaliatory banning have impeded the attempt at making sure that all wetshaving forums are completely aligned in our efforts to enjoy and spread the joy of straight razor shaving. It was further disclosed that Don was not banned from B&B for his association with SRP. The Secret Service mistook him for someone else and there was a terrible mistake made. He is still a moderator over there and we just didn't realize it. As a result, we took the opportunity and were in deep discussions with the Obama administration and the legislature and after exhausting efforts and comprimises by all parties we have agreed to go forward as the Straight Razor Badger. We are hopeful that all constituents will reach across party lines with a hearty handshake and congratulate David on his heroic efforts and bring this nation into a new alignment that will prosper for posterity.
Let us welcome all straight razor bretheren into the fold, share all our knowledge and go forward as a united democracy of the best groomed and most aromatic population known in history. Let all our brothers and sisters around the globe see this example as one of brotherhood, truth, justice and the way that civilized wetshavers should always exist.
So, I am hopeful that one an all will spread the word and rejoice!!!!
Have fun,
Lynn
Thank God I was at work! BTW You guys:rolleyes: need to get a life!
How about - Wherethe Heck Is My Straightrazorplace Internet Connection At, Louise???
WHIMSICAL - NOW there's an acronym I can sink my teeth into because Louise was in the kitchen cooking up a filet mignon for yours truly. Well done I might add. Hey, ADD, ha.

Wouldn't you rather comment on my acronym. I worked so hard on it that I worked up such an appetite, I could eat another well-done mignon. I guess you don't want to hear about the secret homemade mustard I put on my mignon?? HUH? :rant::p
Good to see that everybody has recovered.
What a bootiful ting!!!
