'ere be a clip from the wikipedia article:
International Talk Like a Pirate Day (ITLAPD) is a parodic holiday invented in 1995 by John Baur ("Ol' Chumbucket") and Mark Summers ("Cap'n Slappy"), of the United States, who proclaimed September 19 each year as the day when everyone in the world should talk like a pirate.[1] For example, an observer of this holiday would greet friends not with "Hello", but with "Ahoy, me hearty!" The date was selected because it was the birthday of Summers's ex-wife and consequently would be easy for him to remember.

Greenspan: Bush ‘abandoned’ fiscal constraint.

in

In his new memoir to be released Monday, former Federal Reserve chairman Alan Greenspan “levels unusually harsh criticism at President Bush…in his new book, arguing that Bush abandoned the central conservative principle of fiscal restraint.” President Clinton, on the other hand, he calls a “risk taker” who had shown a “preference for dealing in facts.”

Hosting Issues

in

Domain/Web Host

I've migrated web hosts and am rebuilding Tuzworld from the ground up with a new wordpress theme. This process has been a long time coming due to the fact that my wordpress version has been woefully neglected for a very long time. I'm now running the newest Wordpress on a managed hosting provider that will keep Wordpress up-to-date in the future so as to minimize code upgrading headaches.

Email

Anyone that was still using their Tuzworld.com email addresses let me know and I can setup your account again on this new host along w/ give you access to your old boxes so you can still get your email.

Subdomains

Well, specifically to Bruce: Sharpmud still exists at tuzworld.coralogic.com. Also you can access the CPanel for the old Tuzworld at coralogic.com/CPanel. I can setup Sharpmud on this new hosting provider as well if you would like, plus, there are some other options available to us that we didn't have at the old host. Give me a call when you read this at 540 263 0557.

Chic In DC and Change Your Stripes: I will migrate your sites over as well within the next week.
