Edit: Santa is Checking His List and Finds Our Rantburg Mayor Fred....

2013-12-13

deserves a Hanukkah/Christmas present this year.

And Faithful Penelope has been bad to him..... comment from Fred below.
He's been a good boy, letting us opine at Rantburg. The opinions/comments are real. The background experiences behind these opinions/comments, lend a wealth of knowledge making Rantburg the special place to be....

And for the work he does behind the scene? Well, let's just say, he's underpaid.
(See below)
You know that phrase often heard at this time of the year.... "It's better to give than to receive."

We Rantburgers have been receiving from Mayor Fred, and it's time for the giving part...... It's a click that will bring a smile to your face.....

There is that PayPal button far down on the right side of the screen. Keep scrolling ---- PayPal also gets you to the place for a credit card entry.

When you click the PayPal button, scroll down and you will see:

Don't have a PayPal account?
Use your credit card or bank account (where available). Continue

The Continue is clickable and displays that familiar credit card entry screen.

Need to snail mail cash or check? Email "fred-at-rantburg.com" for an address....

So, think about it -- where else do you get the Rantburg Defender-Scimitar, published daily for over a decade -- the best War on Terror news with knowledgeable comments -- the Babe of the Day and the best snarkiness of all snarks online......

Oh, and did you have some anxiety while Fred had Rantburg down, attempting to move us to Faithful Penelope? Imagine, gone forever..... it could happen.....

Read this from Fred about his experience with Faithful Penelope and you will want to give... if you want your daily dose of Rantburg....

Dig deep..... Fred needs a smile with that bourbon and those chocolate peanut clusters. You may not know, this server change includes a drive to and from Baltimore, lugging all that computer stuff up to some undisclosed location -- and when not working, back down......

It didn't work.

I'm going to have to try again next week. Faithful Penelope did everything to thwart me but catch fire and burn to a cinder. She absolutely refused to find the internet, even though she could find the network--just not as far as the name server.

I finally found myself repeating the same attempts to fix it and expecting different results. I unswapped and brought the silly thing home. On the way home, a lady driving behind me was rear-ended and almost had to buy me a new neck. I stopped at the grocery store and when I was unloading one of the bags broke.

I am now drinking bourbon and eating chocolate peanut clusters. I'll find something else that's bad for me later and do it. Then I'll start looking at all of Penelope's configuration files to see where I was stoopid.

#1 As fate would have it, I had a rebate check come in yesterday. Sending it your way Fred.
