Hmmm. . .this is strange. Here I am at 4:26 PM trying to log on to the message boards when I notice there have been NO NEW POSTS since last night. I then notice that it says I last visited at 9:01 PM TODAY??? What gives??? * * * Well, either you’re closing your eyes to a situation you do not wish to acknowledge or you are not aware of the power of the presence of a pool table in your community.

Could this be why my light bulbs and folders are not working? I just checked in for the first time today, and all of the light bulbs are off, and I have no pink folders, although the times and dates show posts since I was here yesterday. Not that I would believe that no one had posted since yesterday anyway, unless the board died 30 seconds after I left. ## The SDMB has attracted a poltergeist! You’ve got a point there, brother - and one of these days I’m going to figure out what it is. - Cecil Adams ---

The clock was off by a day yesterday evening. From around 5 o’clock till around 10 o’clock, everything was getting stamp as 4/7 instead of 4/6. Been causing some funny things all day. It should straighten itself out after tonight. Jim ---

Aah, OK. . .now we (I assume) have the Straight Dope.
