For the couple dozen of us who are members at both this board and the Pizza Parlor (don’t click that link right away!), I received word from **MouseJstr** , the man who serves as “janitor” over there – meaning he owns and maintains the server and software, and does the hard work in the back rooms, much like **jdavis** over here – that the server will be down until Tuesday, preventing anyone from accessing that board. Since several people have asked me and I just found out a short while ago, I thought I’d make it public what the story is. (Thanks, **Coldie** , for OKing this!) ---

Aw man, that really sucks. Now that I’ve finally (I think) got my computer back up and running… permanently, one hopes, I can’t go over there and post any. Thanks **Poly** , for letting us know. Waves hi to all the PP members from afar! See ya Tuesday. 🙂 ---

Maybe the Pizza Parlour was [raptured](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=207082), and all of us were Left Behind. 😉 ---

Reading the subject line, I thought this was going to be about a waiter taking a dive while trying to get a pizza over to one of his or her tables. ---

I just accessed it. It’s working fine except for one thing. It allows cites of NT Scripture only. No OT. Weird. ;j
