Aplogies For The Break In Transmission!
By Rummuser. Filed in Uncategorized |I apoligize for the absence of my blog from the internet the last few days. As, is obvious, it is now up and running. I have taken such steps as are possible to prevent this from recurring, but hackers are smarter than we think, I am told. I just hope for the best.
I am grateful for the many blog friends who wrote to me about my blog having disappeared from view. I traced the fault to a malware and am particularly grateful to Mike for having given me the indication about the Russian hacker or whatever who was responsible.
I also am grateful for the many mails of encouragement and hope that the blog will be up and running soon. These made me chase matters till the blog was finally up. I am most grateful to Ranjan who made it possible after a great deal of effort. Without him, this would not have been possible.
What better way to start the ball rolling than a really rip roaring post? Await the next one with bated breath. I promise you that it will be a hoot as Bikehikebabe would say.

‘rip roaring’!
I wonder who will be doing the ripping and the roaring?
Watch our BHB it might be you!

Grannymar, do you think anyone will dare to take the slightest risk now that they all know about your hidden pistol?

Rummy, it’s about time . I was going through “withdrawal pain”. No one on the street corner had enough “drugs” to fill the void of no blog.

Not to worry my good man. Plenty of fixes in my very deep pockets. And for you, at a discount too.

I had been experiencing some inexplicable mental agitation for a few days, but it went away this morning. Seeing your blog back suddenly clarifies the reason!
Certainly you don’t need to apologize for this, but I do think the world would be happy to see some hackers apologize. The death penalty would be too kind, so I will need to give some consideration to an appropriate punishment for them.

Have you heard David Bowie’s space oddity? I would like to send these guys on such missions.

Rum, I was wondering what had happened to your blog. I fail to understand what kind of kick hackers get from this sort of vandalism. Anyway it’s nice to see that you are back up and running with your blog.

Nothing like absence to make the heart grow fonder and offer the opportunity to say (as I do now) that I miss you and love what you are and do. the flip (and brighter) side to hackers!

You are a tonic for my ego. Keep doing this more often.

Thanks Bunc. I missed blogging, and more than that, I missed visiting the blogs that I regularly do and comment on. It is nice to be back and doing familiar things.
