So facebook went down for a few minutes. Did you notice? Did you care? Seems a lot of people were mentioning on Twitter - the one social network that used to go down the most.

Yep. Wifey was complaining and somehow it was my fault because I must have done something to the computer....sigh. At least I can now say I fixed it for her. Lol.




Lazy is such an ugly word, I prefer to call it selective participation

Sad, sad world.

Your Mum.

But seriously - The world probably gained about 100,000,000 hours of productivity. Well I hope, unless the entire time the population was hitting the refresh button.
