It appears that the database may need rebuilding. I have been seeing a few oddities.

Sorry I didn't see your response sooner. The other night I did a preview and the post you just made showed up instead of mine. -- In my preview pane. Plus I have had a couple of posts that seem to disappear. Just back arrowed and resubmitted but something is just a bit buggy.

I noticed it was down as well. This morning the pages are hanging when loading for a while. I can load other pages fine. Then a few minutes later no problem.

I don't think clearing your browser history will fix the problem. Nor will deleting the PJ cookies.

I think it's a problem with their site, probably some new security software . . .

Safari ver. 4.1.3 on a PowerPC running Mac OS 10.4.11.......

No later version of Safari nor any other browser will be supported on this system. I have a later version miniMac and I'll have to switch over to that........

Yes but the beat holds it all together in a way that it's not suppose to. Watch it without sound and then listen to it without the visual. Neither the choreography or the audio can stand alone but when you mix them together it holds together exactly nothing...........

It's almost hypnotic in a high fever, spicy food, and NyQuil Gin and Tonic sort of way where you wake up in the front seat of the car with someone else s clothes on.
