Pretenders- I'll Stand By You
Umass first tipped us off to the cause of all the blog crashing yesterday...
Sitemeter Attacks
Starting yesterday, Sitemeter has caused thousands of blogs to fail in Internet Explorer 7 for some reason. Popular sites such as I Saw Your Nanny, Hot Air and Michelle Malkin sites have been affected. The problem exists on Sitemeter’s own website. It appears that Sitemeter changed its coding yesterday without warning its users, and without testing it before going live with the changes. (Read more.)

oh my gosh, i thought something was really wrong with my computer!

UmassSlytherin said...

My husband said that I got banned from ISYN cus so many people hated me. I was like, you really think so?

:)

MaryPoppin'Pills said...

You mean when you 1st noticed you were having problems last night, he said that?!
That is hilarious!

UmassSlytherin said...

yes, and I believed him for a few minutes too! lol

Anonymous said...

Hahahaha, too funny umass.

MaryPoppin'Pills said...

I love it, Umass! I imagine you and your Husband play tricks on each other all the time?
We are like that in my Family ... good thing everyone knows how to take a joke!

UmassSlytherin said...

oh god, mpp if you only knew. that's us: a couple of jokes. lmfao

UmassSlytherin said...

Love the song by the way, today! :)

Can we have a song request day or something like that? I would request a New Kids on the Block video.

MaryPoppin'Pills said...

Hi Umass
Funny you should ask ... personally, I would love to have one day a week where readers can submit stories/experiences like they did before.
I really enjoyed having that.
I don't know if anyone would be interested ... but I would hope to see you contribute again if it came to fruition!

We'll have to see what Jane says!

UmassSlytherin said...

I would love it, but I think I'm tapped for childcare articles. The stuff I've been writing lately wouldn't be appropriate. But I LOVED all the articles that week and I would absolutely love to read what people have to say.

Hey appalled: let's have a guest column about the trials and tribulations of being a SAHM! Not being fresh, I'm serious!

MaryPoppin'Pills said...

Hey Umass,
Let me guess ...

"Summertime" by NKOTB?

MaryPoppin'Pills said...

"The trials and tribulations of being a SAHM" ...

Oooo, I like that one. I could contribute plenty, but wouldn't know where to start!

UmassSlytherin said...

yes, summertime is a good one, but any old nkotb video would do!

and I would love to hear both your take and appalled's take on it. I'm sure they would have very different tones! lmao but both would be great reads!!!!

MaryPoppin'Pills said...

Umass
You think we'd have different tones? I'm very curious as to what you mean?

To be honest, I wasn't supposed to be a Mom, and maybe one day I'll explain how this little guy came to be in my life .... but I do know one thing, and that is I'm incredibly grateful to have him, and I truly do enjoy each day I get to spend with him.

UmassSlytherin said...

Ok, how do I say this without being rude to one of you....I don't think there's a way. So here goes.

mpp, I think yours would not be bitchy.
:) lolol sorry appalled, but bitchy can be good sometimes!

that is what I meant! And I'm so glad you're a mom! you are both lucky to have each other!

my little one has been fussy lately! :( those pesky teeth coming in. :(

MaryPoppin'Pills said...

Umass
Thanks!

NKOTB? How about this?

I offered more than grunt work and I never got my moniker in blue faced print. I created things for I Saw Your Nanny. A little respect? How about finally using my video?

Anonymous said...

paul,
I watched your video and I am going to go on that site and make my own ISYN "video".

It's Sunday. I challenge you all to do the same. Let's see who can come up with the best!

You should click on Paul's "video" and watch his first. Umass, I know yours would be great. MPP? Marissa?
Anyone up for a challenge?

Anonymous said...

Why would you want to take that away from me? That is a distinctly Paul thing.
Go crawl back under your rock.

UmassSlytherin said...

paul, that was cute, I loved it! I am not even going to try to top it!

YIKES RO, looks like you have some built up aggression! I must say though, fantastic use of the wah-wah. I loved it!

Sorry for the triple post. Computer was freaking out.

UmassSlytherin said...

how do you turn your moniker into a link? I'm a comp dummy. :(

Anonymous said...

ok i think i figured it out. here's my movie.

MaryPoppin'Pills said...

Cute, Umass. :)
Paul must be so incensed that everyone is making videos now, lol, but I've thoroughly enjoyed each and every one of them!

chick, great flick, but why does it say directed by butt looks big???

???

are you blb too??

MaryPoppin'Pills said...

For future reference, click Name/URL. Put your moniker, or whatever you want (to describe your link) where it says NAME. Then under that where it says URL, Copy & Paste the URL. Viola!
It shows up in Blue where your moniker would be, and all people have to do is click it.
And you can write whatever you want in the comment box.

MaryPoppin'Pills said...

chick = BLB ????? No way.

Nope. Same Link, Chick.

chick said...

I give up.

Or not. Grrrrr. mpp, could you toss the posts with the wrong link into the circular file? tia

MaryPoppin'Pills said...

You made a movie and can't post the link, Chick, is that what's wrong?

UmassSlytherin said...

she did it! great job chick!!!

I was really confused for awhile, thinking you were really blb! lol

MaryPoppin'Pills said...

Yaaaay! We have Lift-off!
Cool Chick! Girly was a bit on the young side for Fabio, though, lol!

chick said...

me = BLB?

LOL! Nope, I have enough trouble posting with one moniker.

Obviously.

bowchickabowwow

chick said...

yeah, once I watched everyone else's vids, I realized they'd used her as a kid, but I went with her because the description was something like "a 29 yo computer geek with a purse fetish".

le sigh.

Anonymous said...

Hiya Chick,
How in the world did you get BLB's link? That was too weird!

chick said...

cfg, I copied the link to her vid into a new tab, watched it, and then when I was trying to post MY link, I either was inept at the "copy" and "paste" function, or my computer was having a little freak-out and NOT copying MY link.

I am not 80, and have used computers before with moderate success, I promise!

Anonymous said...

Chick
That's sounds very plausible. I was wondering there for a minute if my new friend BLB and you were one and the same! LOL, Thanks!

Anonymous said...

Damn you, Paul! These movies are addictive! here's another little ditty I just cooked up!

O.k., so I figured I'd hop on the movie-making bandwagon.
Cheers!
