droogs.org is back (and food poisoning considered harmful)

TeeJay on 2004-05-06T14:02:52

After nearly a month of mucking about my droogs.org domain is back on the superwebinterhighway.

Also yesterday I discovered the 'joy' of food poisoning, something I have avoided for nearly 30 years ( 8 of which I was vegetarian, which helps ). It got so bad I blacked out at about 4:30 AM yesterday morning after a deeply unpleasent experience starting at 11PM and getting worse until 5AM when I think I managed to evacuate the contents of my guts and what felt like most of my internal organs. I almost regret starting to eat fish again (trying to avoid farmed) seeing as it was a dodgy ASDA (Walmart's UK store) Tuna steak.

Anyway, I should be resubbing to all the lists that kicked me off - only the soap-lite mailing list was smart enough to probe my address and resubscribe me automagically - all the other mailing lists obviously fail to cope with domain renewal delays.

I knew the domain was renewed as soon as I checked my inbox - 900 spam and bounce mails in the day it was back, even while the domain didn't resolve I still got 5 - 10 spam a day.
