Anybody else notice? It takes forever to load each page and about half of the time one gets an error message rather than the page on which one clicked. Who do we call when this happens? Does Anu work nights? Is there another little man behind the curtain? Perhaps one with a wrench?

Now I do what he said. Shut down, restart. Daily, If that fails, close everything. Shut down. Unplug the computer. Re-plug. Re-Start. Now we will hear from the cognoscenti who will yell No! No! and yet again No! Better check with the guy you bought the computer from. OR, Read The Frickin' Manual Works every time.

But thanks!

It is not that the site is overcrowded as I appear to be the only one here. It is not that my computer is misbehaving, as it has been happy on numerous other websites this evening. Am I the only one having these problems? Could it be an evil djin living in my computer?
