The Smiley Smile Message Board

In case you were wondering, yes - the Shut Down board is currently unavailable due to server issues my ISP is trying to work through.  Generally speaking, whenever it's reached the point where i've had to post on other boards about it, my board seems to come back within mere moments - - so there you go!

Here's hoping it works this time!
;-)

In any event, they are aware of the problem and are working on it.  Thanks to all who have let me know.

UPDATE:  I just wanted to let everybody know that I'm still working on resolving the board issues.  My messages to my ISP are becoming increasingly frequent, and increasingly pointed.

I like this less than any of you, trust me...

good luck Susan! We'll wait patiently...

More patiently than i, i'm sure!

*sigh*

Don't bank on it...  ::)

I would SERIOUSLY look into another ISP. Earthlink possibly?

"Looking into" another ISP is on the list of things to do, rest assured.  There is this other thing called Real Life that tends to interfere, but believe me...these cats are not permanent.

Andrew...i will be Einstein here and assure you that whatever frustrations your experience, mine are infinitely more.  Or words to that effect.

Thank you for your service, Susan!

If it makes you feel any better -- "The Mets win!  The Mets win!"

Sue, it'll =just be great to have the board back -  it's a tremendous board. MAny thanks for your efforts; don't let it fluster you!

I'm sure that's true.

Relatively speaking, of course.  8)

Andrew - you're just a clever clogs, aren't you??
;-)

Thanks for your understanding, guys.  I'll let you know as soon as it's back up.

Once more, with feeling...Good Luck with it all, Suze.

A Very Happy Val...still basking in the afterglow of all of last night's events at the Beach Boys gig in Birmingham (and I did remember to say a hearty "Hi" for you, my friend).   ;D

Update, since i know some of you are missing the board almost as much as i am:

In response to a VERY cranky "site down" communication over the weekend, i received this this morning:

"I was able to replicate the issue. After trouble shooting without a resolution I left an open ticket for the administrator to repair the issue. An email will be sent to the email address on the account once the issue has been closed. We do apologize for any inconvenience that this might have caused. "

So...here's hoping they'll get this thing fixed for us soon.

Cranky, eh?   My guess is that it peeled paint off the walls.

No, no...as a musician i have learned to leave myself some room - you have to start small and build gradually.

Let's just say it's building...

We're back, folks.  I am a whole person once again.

Well done and welcome back - I'm over there right now!

Great! I'm on my way there right now.
