Servers That Go Bump in the Night

geeks.jpg

Well, it finally happened, folks. After seven months of pointing out the hypocrisy of the rich, famous, and generally annoying, someone took it personally. And on our second-highest traffic day ever. Go figure.

That certain someone launched what’s known as a “distributed denial-of-service” attack against our web server last night, keeping the world safe for Michael Lohan, Senator Larry Craig, Al Gore, Jenna Jameson, and the rest of the celebrity roster of convenience at PETA. At least for a few hours.

While we consult with secret agents at Control to figure out which of our recent targets actually Got Smart enough to pull this off, rest assured that we’re taking steps to minimize the possibility that this sort of thing could succeed again.

I think it involves chewing gum. And spackle.
