JOURNALSPACE.COM

If you haven't heard, JOURNALSPACE.COM had a massive hardware failure this weekend.

This is the message on their website:

Monday, 0700 GMT: Down, But Not Out...

The journals and blogs hosted by journalspace.com are temporarily unavailable. Journalspace experienced a hardware failure on Friday. We are making upgrades to help ensure that this problem does not happen again. The process of upgrading the hardware and restoring the data is, by necessity, a long and complex one.

We really appreciate your patience. We know how much you love reading the blogs and journals hosted on journalspace, and we're working to make them available as soon as we can. Cathy, Tiffany, Ellen, Robert, Shane, Natalie, Joe, and the rest will be back soon.

The current estimate for the return of journalspace is Tuesday. We will update this page if there are any changes.


From what I have read, their hard-drive literally exploded. Foolishly, the "backups" were also stored on that same piece of equipment.

A lot of blogs, such as The World, My Playground (see "links" on sidebar) may have lost all their history. And some blogs may be gone altogether, lost in the Twilight Zone of cyberspace.

GOD'S GETTING BETTER

IT'S SAPPY, BUT I LIKE IT

A little girl was sitting on her grandfather's lap as he read her a bedtime story.

From time to time, she would take her eyes off the book and reach up to touch his wrinkled cheek.

She was alternately stroking her own cheek, then his again.

Finally she spoke up, "Grandpa, did God make you?"

"Yes, sweetheart," he answered, "God made me a long time ago."

"Oh," she paused, "grandpa, did God make me too?"

"Yes, indeed, honey," he said, "God made you just a little while ago."

Feeling their respective faces again, she observed, "God's getting better at it, isn't he ?"
