Click the link for the full story. I'm sitting here, cowering in a corner with my flask, rocking back and forth muttering... "I didn't do it... [sip] I didn't do it..."

You see, the coincidence here is that I just did some upgrades on the server and was working on the DNS system (an area in which I sometimes struggle) last night. When stuff breaks down after that kind of work, you don't worry that it's down, you hope that someone else fucked up.
