10. I know where you're coming from
Sadly, I stayed up just to make sure all was well. Even though my intelligent mind told me it would be fine...

Now off to bed, I have important business to attend to tomorrow.

:hugs: to all who were concerned.

11. Thought I was the only one
Thought I posted too much gibberish on a religious topic that people didn't want to hear and they banned me or something. Glad they didn't. I wanted to kill myself before I came on here tonight. Now I want to, well, three hours ago I wanted to debate somebody. Now I am sleepy and want to go to sleep. If anyone on here knows any strange mysticism, please let me have a good dream and not the nightmares, like Bush being president, America committing genocide, being overwhelmed with so called charity. I want to dream of the long ago good ol' days when we had the "Elvis" president and Ellen Degeneres had a hit sitcom. I want to feel that feeling when he won the first time, the second time, and I want to feel that feeling when the first sorry excuse for a President Bush had to admit defeat. I long for the days where there was hope. I long for the days when it seemed people had finally evolved other than a few Eric Rudolph's and Tim McVeigh's and of course the ever present Neo Nazis, I mean Repukes, I mean neo nazis, ah hell, why differentiate between the two? They are the same people. I want to dream of the hope I had at that time of finding love despite the fact that I live in the hateful ol' south full of hatemongers telling me I am a bad person because I don't want war and to see children being murdered. Silly me. I dreamed of people finaly evolving and seeing murdering children with bombs as a wicked horrible thing.
Good night all and I will remember to come here next time I get horribly depressed.

12. I've been having problems all night
Pages not loading properly, Signs of HTML code where it shouldn't be. Sluggish/slow loading. Getting the "cannot be found" message! I don't like it, not at all!

14. Wonder what the cause is ?
Internal failure, or some kind of hacking attempt ? Perhaps a DOS attack ?

17. A DOS attack?
I've been having terrible trouble getting in. Seem OK but a little slow now.

It would be nice to have a reassuring explanation.

25. Of course it's "them"
Repukes, probably those form Freeperville, are trying to keep us separated from each other so we will be more likely to buy their unreal version of what is right and what is wrong. I knew they were after me, but this is ridiculous. Quick, everybody, hide me and they'll stop. Who, here at DU has the authority to start a witness protection program and hide me? And let me move too, please make it San Fran. Ah, hell, it was worth a try.
