Damn slow news feeds everywhere

[Mr. Ogre]

Man, this sucks. Netcom's newsfeed is 12+ hours behind (and hasn't
had *any* new articles for at least two hours). Been that way for
days.

So I have this one site I go use through this ridiculously large
loophole when I get fed up and want news (don't ask where, I won't
tell you.) but today it turns out their newsfeed is about 2 days
behind. Arrgh.

What's the world coming to when even the sites you use illegally
have lousy news feeds?

This is due to the bozotic filters netcom recently placed on their news
server. The bozos go in, but they don't get out.

It's sort of like "The Real World" on MTV.

My other news account is backed up even worse than netcom. I think the
most recent post I saw there today was from Feb. 9. Either something's
wrong with my newsreader, or SOMEONE BROKE THE INTERNET.

Sorry. It seemed like a good idea at the time. Please don't get mad at
me, or I will feel compelled to send even more junk mail apologizing for
breaking the Internet, and then it will break again, and then it will be
like one of those damned Prell loops again, just like with Sisyphus and
that one guy, Al Camus, who had the rock! That would totally SUCK!!!!!

WUV,
SALI!!! =D
