Patient

September 29th 2006 Posted in General

Does anyone else find it ironic that the same word that means:
Bearing or enduring pain, difficulty, provocation, or annoyance with calmness.
and
Capable of calmly awaiting an outcome or result; not hasty or impulsive.
also is the same word meaning
One who receives medical attention, care, or treatment.
?

Have people always had to wait a long time at doctor’s offices? Is calling the customers patients just a way of calming them down? Maybe we should refer to rioters and insurgents as “peacefuls”. I think that might help.

Milenka OK After Hospital Stay and DNS Issues

September 21st 2006 Posted in General

So everyone knows, Milenka is back and OK. She actually posted as much, but who knows exactly what she said as no one can get to it.

Way back when she signed up with our host, they used a different name. Her domain was still pointing to the old name servers which apparently had been working/forwarding up until just recently. Unfortunately, we were given no warning about the change, so now everything is dead. I can’t even get an IP for the server. How annoying. It’ll be a day or two before the DNS servers all update with the correct information, so her site will be down until then. Keep checking back though, as it could come up for you at any given time.

Boppy

September 18th 2006 Posted in General

The intended use of a Boppy is to support a baby. It has various uses for doing such, but really, they all involve a baby. However, after getting one the other day, Milenka seemed to think it made a good pillow for herself.
