I tried to go to the main page as well without luck. Either Jess is doing upgrades, or the site just got hacked. Maybe your email is how people's passwords were getting stolen.

Had no problem opening other pages, even tried thru Explorer and such. You have requested noticeable gliches, giving you this just in case. Best, SDG

I've been running mirror servers while doing some more intensive development, and I must have triggered an automatic email from one of the mirrors while testing. Doh! Sorry about that...

jess Petty Tyrant 0:7 and counting Joined: UTC Posts: 38668 Location: Bay Area, California	UTC quote Looks like I let that mirror forum linger there a bit long. It was actually a fairly old copy of the forum, and it was recently discovered by Kim Kardashian and her assorted sex tapes, apparently. Looks like I didn't trigger the email notification, some spammer must have sent your mirror-ego a PM. Anywho, all is deleted now.

P.S. I love you Mike. Seriously. I do. I know I have to keep up appearances on the site because I really do care about a place for a lot of new Vespa owners to congregate and I know that many of them are afraid of the mean old bbs, but that's not why I write. I just want you to know that inside I like you. I know you come off as a dick but you're really smart and knowledgeable and you add to the site. Know that even though a lot of people get their butts hurt because they don't like the way you write, I just delete their e-mails.

Seriously, can we date sometime? Seeing you at White's Ferry at CB08 made my thingy jump a bit in my pants.
