Yeah, in a way, it does.

The message board was hosted in the unused space that a customer/friend of mine wasn't using on his website.

He owns a concrete yard, and works hard for what he has. Last March, he was sick and tired of his PC, and it always crapping out on him, so he decided to take the plunge, and switch to a Mac. He spent close to $8k by the time he was done. He bought awesome everything; best iMac, best sub & speaker system, killer scanner, killer printer, an iPod, a $2k digital camera, and a $3k camcorder. He had it all set up in a trailer at his yard.

Well, he fell in love with his Mac almost overnight. He had no regrets, and was a very happy camper, and refuses to even turn on the PC he has at home.

This past weekend he took his wife up the coast to Big Sur, and had a very nice time. When he got back, he got a call from his son, who told him that Saturday night someone broke into the trailer and stole every single piece of his Mac computer equipment. In anger, and without thinking, he called the service that hosted his site, and cancelled his account, before I had the chance to back it up.

So, our message board is gone until we set it up again (groan) on some new server space. Honestly, right now that is the least of my concerns. I feel a great deal of pain from this, even though it wasn't my equipment. Gary is a good guy, and he spent a lot of money, and was very happy. Now his money and his source of happiness are gone.

I have done a little research, and have a good idea who the theif is. Problem is he's got warrants, so the cops are already looking for him, and he stole an HA's Harley about a month ago, so the Ventura chapter of the Hells Angels is looking for him too. I asked them to let me have him for 20 minutes first when they find him, but it's not going to happen. He'll just disappear forever, like evry other fool that fukks with them.

I'm still looking under rocks, though. I'll get a message board up again pretty soon.

Take care,
