Patroclus tried to do something clever with her blog and move it somewhere else, only that didn't work, so the blog is currently in limbo, and quinquireme dot blogspot dot com seems to link to a pervy search engine. So you might want to remove your links there, and I'll put up her new address when she sorts it out...
Thank you - and I thought that the resulting search engine was P's post-ironic take on 'whither feminism now' . . .
ReplyDeleteWhat's wrong with Blogspot?
Ah yes, I was wondering what was going on. I hope the archives are safe.
ReplyDeletewhat happens when you get more cyber than cyber? where do these blogs go - virtual brigadoon? i'm very bothered by the idea of the texts and emails that go missing floating round in the ether, bumping into eachother and knocking random letters and words flying - bit like that fridge poetry stuff after a few years of neglect. maybe that's where the word verification comes from ...
ReplyDeletePhew - I was getting worried.
ReplyDeletePervy search engines are all good but not at work.
There had to be some frantic closing of programmes this morning.
That's what happens to you if you're rude about telly. Watch out James!
ReplyDeleteHaha I was thinking along rather similar lines to mangonel.
ReplyDeleteThanks James!
Weirdly, I was questing for panties, and came across Patroclus's blog. See, every cloud has a silver panty-liner. Or something.
ReplyDeleteI think that this isn't uncommon. When Squeeze tried to move Gastronomy Domine, her blogspot address got hijacked by something very similar. If you write to Blogger and shout loudly enough, they will give it back.
ReplyDeleteAh, if only I was clever enough to have thought of turning my blog into a panty link farm in order to make some sort of post-ironic statement about the future of feminism.
ReplyDeleteAlhough I do quite like pants. Nice ones, mind. Sorry, I have had some wine.
Anyway, James was being charitable by not saying that I impetuously deleted my blog in a fit of THE VAPOURS. Soon it will return, all sheepish and a bit bedraggled, probably at a URL like quadrireme dot blogspot dot com.
In the meantime I thank you all for your concern and sensible suggestions, and I shall NEVER DO IT AGAIN.
Until the next time I get all female and hormonal, that is.
Phew. That was really quite scary and upsetting, like entering a parallel universe.
ReplyDeleteCome back!
And Tim was questing for panties. Not going to ask...
ReplyDelete..*sigh* i'm always the last to know.
ReplyDeleteI remain defiantly un-married at the time of writing. The Green Wing Gary, however, was entered in the Lists of the Fallen some time last year I think.
ReplyDeletethankyou, i thought that she'd deliberately withdrawn from the blogosphere and the panty link was some odd dig @ foolish bloggers who remain...
ReplyDeleteglad that she's still around and will return...
won't she?
