Politics, elections and piffle plinking

Blogstasis

Posted by Possum Comitatus on September 11, 2008

This place is in stasis pending something that will happen very, very shortly (insert appropriately suspenseful  music)

Any comments made will disappear into the ether – never to be seen again, so it might be wise to hold them off for a little bit.

    The temptation to comment on this post is just too strong …

    Could this have anything to do with a similar post at William’s, I wonder?

    Exciting isn’t it 🙂

  3. Debbie said

    this is the ether?

  4. 2353 said

    So this comment will be treated with the respect it deserves?

  5. megan said

    So this is the black hole…?

  6. Possum Comitatus said

    heh!

    I knew you lot couldn’t resist! :mrgreen:

    Ah another incidence of the Nelson phenomenon: “Any comments made will disappear into the ether – never to be seen again”.

    Rudi @ 8

    hahaha

    Ahh, well now I know the Bowemeister hasn’t called the WA election…

    Possum, for you:

    If the Nats play their cards right, a bit of Oakeshott magic might rub off and they might still lose Port Macquarie. Wouldn’t that be funny?

    So let me explain to everybody what really happened on 9-11, and how we can bring those responsible to justice…

    What? Time’s up already ? No-o-o-o-o…!!!!

    Hey Scott – oops Possum.

    Do you really want people to know your mobile phone number? Get them to hide it on your dns record. 🙂

  13. Possum Comitatus said

    Ta Rua – I’m glad you mentioned that or I would have forgotten all about it.

    I’ve already decloaked around the place (including in the About section right here), that was part of it – it’s strange the people who give you a ring and write you letters though!

    NetRegistry are a great organisation, I used them in a previous life and was delighted with their service. The only issues were email related – but to be fair we sent a minimum of 60,000 a day.

    Great choice of host. 😛

    “I’ve already decloaked around the place (including in the About section right here), that was part of it – it’s strange the people who give you a ring and write you letters though!”

    Yep. Years of writing letters to the Herald have earnt me one piece of abuse – by phone from a local, two fan letters, and about half a dozen strange ranty photocopies from people WAY too in love with their pet theories (hint: don’t write letters about religion 😉 )

  17. Daniel B said

    Hmm… how do I view Possum’s details? Not that I want to write any strange letters right now, but it’s a bit of a thrill just knowing.

  18. 2353 said

    heh!

    I knew you lot couldn’t resist! :mrgreen:

    Come on Poss – you would have been concerned if we had!

    Great Expectations, the novel and the new.

  22. sondeo said

    Possum, I hope that music you mentioned is on a high rotation loop. The natives are getting restless.

  23. Aspirational Aspirationalist said

    Can we throw some CO2 into the ether along with the comments ? 🙂

    Your not planning a book launch are you ? giving us all this suspense ?

    Will the new site be shut down because 3 months ago you might have danced around house with your clothes off ?

    And will the new site be fistworthy ?….. Tron tron tron tron tron…..

    Maybe I’ve had too much alcohol for coherent blogging.

    Possum Are you taking a leaf out of the Tips book?

  25. The Keegan said

    Is this thread an analogy for The Nightwatchman’s immediate future? Statis, disappearing into the ether, etc?

  26. ruawake said

    Hmm

    Put my thinking cap on.

    Scott and Billbo have put together a snazzy superdooper site, with blogs, forums and whizzbangs. Using Plesk Sitebuilder.

    It was already to go at lunchtime yesterday – that is until NetRegistry had a major technical upchuck and their sitebuilder hardware shat itself.

    So we wait until the 18th Sept when they expect to fix the problem. 🙂

    Poss ! Emergency !!

    I’ve had a previous free trial at Crikey, and it looks like I can’t register for your blog.

    I get a message ‘That e-mail is already in use’

    Anybody else having trouble, or am I just doing something stupid?

    (I did read a Shanahan article right through the other day… FFS – perhaps my brain is fried…)

  28. Possum Comitatus said

    Trubbel – try following this link and going from there.
    http://blogs.crikey.com.au/wp-signup.php

    Let me know what happens

  29. Possum Comitatus said

    And make sure you unclick the “Special offer – sign up for crikey free trial” bit at the bottom.That might be where the problem came in.
