HRW BLACKOUT

[BIG E]

Am I the only one from yesterday that had a few hours of not being able to bring up the HRW homepage?
I tried two browsers and no results. Could just have been my "digitally challenged" condition acting up, too!! :>) -- Ernie

No, our host had issues. Fixed now.

It is my fault. I was trying to clean up the mess in the HRW server room and I unplugged something and used that outlet for the vacuum.

Now I know what was plugged into it...

I hate to admit it, but we used a bank of DEC tape machines in 1975. We also had an IBM 1135 that occupied a whole climate controlled room. Our key punch card typist was the first women I ever saw who had fake boobs and butt, along with a nose job and bleached blonde hair, we called her Debbie, The 8000 Dollar Woman. I always wondered if she dressed intentionally for that 67 degree glass fishbowl room (yes, that's what I mean). Best collection of undersized sweaters in the South, most were pink (yes, I remember- I was 25).

I experienced that hiccup. I didn't know what it was. My computer does things similar to that sometimes, so I just moved on, came back later and everything was cool. :) Rob I had something similar to your ordeal with the sweaters, but this gal worked on the mezzanine above the production floor right in front of a window, and when she was seated at her desk it left little to the imagination. If she caught you looking she would just smile, and yes I too remember I was 23. :D

Leave it to a bunch of over the hill slotheads to turn a thread from "what happened to HRW?", to chicks with fake boobs and tight sweaters!
Ya gotta love it, I know I do! We should all be congratulated for thinking outside the box (ooops!). -- Ernie

Us old fellas kind get off track now and then. But you have to admit it is entertaining. :D

Does Doc still have sideburns?

And was he a DEC Doc?

[FootScoot]

BigE I'm off track most of the time. I've been told I ain't right. :lol:

[dreinecke]

Nope, no sideburns.

Not a DEC Doc either...although, I play one at home...
