Well, we're still getting tons of spam in the message queue, and I still can't post stuff. Chris will be loading new software to see if that helps when he gets the chance, but for now the site is...just as moribund as it was when it was solely due to my own laziness.

Well, a little more, maybe. Sorry for the technical difficulties, but we'll hopefully be back up and running soon.

Some dillweeds hacked our site, and that's what was causing all the problems and spam and crap. Chris did some magic, which involved decapitating a chicken, I think, and everything seems to be better. There's a new version of WordPress, which means minor wrangling on my part because I'm a moron, but it should be more secure.

PS: Dear Dillweeds - Seriously, you need to find more useful things to do with your time. And this is *me* talking.

Why? It's not like you're the Pentagon or Microsoft or Paris Hilton. What's the point of hacking an obscure site about b-movies?

Nice try Ken. We all know that Jabootu is the key to American world domination. As Jabootu goes, so goes our empire.

Speaking as a WordPress geek, you ought to plan on updating the software often. They release new versions of WordPress as security flaws are found, but that doesn't help you if you're using the old version.

Thanks, buddy. Problems decreased since Chris updated the software, although we're still getting a ton of spam caught in the queue, but it is getting caught, so that's something.
