More Good Site News, More Bad Site News

Good news: the new PHP and database code is working on the new server!

Bad news: the move messed up the database character set, and in the process of fixing it, my fat fingers destroyed about a month's worth of data. So if you sent any updates after about April 15, please send them again.

I have a lot of typing to do.

UPDATE: Thanks once again to RealBeer's Jeff Scott, who restored a backup from May 14 and thereby saved me a whole bunch of typing! I owe him a lot of beers.

Good Site News, Bad Site News

Good news: Beer Me! has moved to a new server. I had to change a bit of the code, which was a challenge since I hadn't touched it since 2007, but I got it done.

Bad news: the old code is running — and failing — on the new server, and I don't yet have access to upload the new code. So that's why you're seeing a blank page there.

I'll post an update when I know more.

UPDATE: The site is working again! There are some cosmetic glitches that I'll work on fixing, but it looks like all the functionality is back. Thanks to RealBeer's Jeff Scott for helping me through this!

Shower Beer

Seemed appropriate after 1½ hours of snowblowing and shoveling this morning!

If you're not familiar with the Shower Beer, I gotta tell you, it's one of the greatest inventions ever. Cleansing, relaxing, hot shower on the outside. Refreshing, satisfying, cool beer on the inside. Can't be beat.

WAY Behind

 Holy smokes am I behind on my notes and updates. Let's see how much I can get typed up during tonight's Sharks game.
