Well I never heard the dropped it part but that is kind of along the same lines.  Mostly I heard that once the servers got moved to the new building no one knew how to get them back up and running correctly.  It would be a valid reason on why they needed to get it running again.  A simple across the street move shouldn't involve any server changes.

yeah well it should have been as simple as unplugging it and plugging it back in at the new location.  they couldn't because it was dropped.  i'm guessing it was probably a desktop that was converted to a server, or something like that.

because it's very rare for people to drop $20,000 rack-mount servers

Rare, but potentially hilarious.

Also, whoever said they "wish they were here for HLP's birth" made me laugh.

Remember that scene from Babylon 5 where they uncovered the Shadow vessel on Mars, and another comes along to retrieve it, along with an ear shattering scream at its birth?

Something like that ;)

When HLP was born it cried a ear shattering scream. :wtf: :shaking:

Why?

Because most people wish they were when their child was born. Or when someone close to them died. Or how I wish I had a shot at Jamie Lynn Spears before she got pregnant.

What? My sister watches that show. It was only a matter of time, being related to a piece of BS.

Really? Your sister and I should hang out. Though we probably watch it for different reasons...

Either you're referring to Kal's old username or the Scottish/Newfanese spelling of mom.

What impresses me most is that nobody has made a joke about my mother yet.

I'm not sure if I'm more impressed, or more disappointed, in you guys ;)

Actually I wanted to write along rant to defend the younger members of the community but it is late and I am lazy so: Certain people might be offended by that but because you are An0n: who cares anyway?
