This actually belongs in the thread here started by our esteemed friend and colleague dane, but I'm pulling a nadin here.  Rather than adding on to a thread, the oblate spheroid has the habit of starting a new campfire.

Update on the call

I was able to talk to my mom over skype (so the satellite is not down).... she talked with family from Cleveland, so will start digging to see if this is a So Cal issue.

(For those missing this, we did have a quake, and quakes sometimes do that)

and whatever it was, it's back

No primitives at the campfire.

Wow she can now communicate with the outside world. Will wonders ever cease. Next thing you know she'll be sending faxes to her employer and pics without the good rig.

How can an earthquake in the Land of Fruits and Nuts bring down a satellite?

You know, I've been watching this "trick" of the oblate spheroid for a long time now.

She lights one campfire on one particular topic.

And when when she wants to draw attention to herself with an update, rather than commenting at the first campfire, she starts a whole new one.

Such as what I did here.  I should've put the topic as a comment on our good friend dane's thread here in the DUmpster, because they're related; this one's an update on what dane had posted.

But no, franksolich wanted to draw attention to himself, and so started a whole new thread.

I think the oblate spheroid's noticed the mysterious absence of poor stupid Beth from Skins's island, and is taking the opportunity to get her count up, surpassing poor stupid Beth.

By George, you're right! How long has poor stupid Beth been missing?

For many months, all her posts have been so empty, so vapid, so stupid, I didn't even realize she was gone.

If she'd go back to posting about her mother, her jailbird sons, or the tribulations of living in a camper in the desert, she could be a contender even as stupid as she is.

That'd really be something, to be recognized as both the DOTY and the stupidest person on all the internets in the same year.

Sort of like a DUmpmonkey Grand Slam.

A dropped phone call to a 3rd world shit hole is almost always the first sign of an impending military coup, how dare the lesser DUmmys question her logic.

I lost my internet service about 1 a.m. a few nights ago, and stayed up until dawn worried that our alien overlords were finally invading.

Oh my goodness, California had an earthquake????   That's about as shocking as western New York having a snowstorm!

Which is about as rare as multiple shootings in Chicago.  That is the city that Obama worked to organize ,BTW.

Aha, nadin discovers the proximate cause of the earthquake.

Obama said he would organize it.  He never said he would fix it. :whatever:
