Web hosting cashed a cheque ...
Maybe because you paid for this in the 1960s when little old ladies still used cheques?
Type of payment not withstanding that was a real dick move on their part. We are working super hard to kill off the stuff they host for us and while that project was already at an 11 for importance it's now hit 12. Unprecedented.
So wait... They took your payment and then said you didn't pay, <click> ?
Correct. Then we had to pay AGAIN by credit card to get the site back up.
Were you behind on the bill or something? That seems like theft to me.
Nope we were bang on, which leads to unbelievable point #3 - they cut us off within 24 hours of "no payment" after having hosted with them for 3+ years. No call, no courtesy, just F you guys click
Maybe it's time to get a new host...

I can't even imagine getting a full twelve hours off between things!

Yeah, but you're SAM - you're a machine! I'm a lowly tech...

Of course the one hard drive I have at home that I didn't get a chance to backup to crash plan yet is the one that fails.. And none of the ones I have backed up have ever failed.

I have just concluded a massive pun run with two friends on book face. It was grand.

At a Bistro trying to work... it's open mic night (usually means horrible musicians) nope I am not that lucky. There is a guy who thinks he is a comedian, not so much.
You must have the surface with you (maybe)... I keep getting notifications from it.
That or TWC at the office is bouncing.
I had it with me last night. I had work to do. And had to focus on something to drown out the awfulness.

My kids are making homemade butter today.

Do you have a real butter churn to use?

Pun run is off and racing again... Well, I think they are losing charge...

Neat - good life experience for them.

No, and that is making things even harder.
This isn't an experiment in pioneer living, it's a science class project.

SW seems to be having performance issues and isn't letting me post again.

Nice! I have relatives that have a butter churn in the house, but I've never known them to actually use it

We use a lot of butter here, so we are hoping to really use it.

@scottalanmiller Is it the "ball jar + butter cream + shaking vigorously = butter" experiment?
-
I remember doing that as a kid (off grid living at it's best). Masson Jar and lots of shaking and salt

Yup. With like a full litre of cream.

@Minion-Queen Haha, we used to do it with a ball that we tossed to each other. My wife just this past year showed me the ball jar method.

Full Litre of cream = milk from the cow, rather than all this specially processed junk we have in the US?
(In Georgia, I can actually find raw milk, but it is sold "for pet consumption only"... never hurt us before)
