………………………..Hard Drive Disaster

An apology and an explanation.

‘Where is Pat and Sam!”

We’ve heard this cry, and we’ve been trying to call back.

You see, Pat and Sam have been wandering in the wilderness for the past couple of weeks. Why?

Well, we did take a week off for some much needed R&R. But, the trouble came when we returned.

Suddenly we had a disaster. A calamity! A catastrophe of the worst magnitude!

A crucial hard drive of our failed, and along with it we lost a significant amount of data. The first reaction from most people upon hearing this is to ask, “Did you have everything backed up?”

The simple answer is no. We did not.

This is my responsibility, and my fault. I failed. A lot of very important stuff was backed up, but we’ve still lost crucial data. It’s really going to be a ton of work to re-construct what can be reconstructed. Certainly some of it can be replaced, but many things cannot, so we’ll have lost much that is irreplaceable.

So, for many, many days we’ve been reconstructing vital data, and during that time I’m afraid we’ve had to neglect our site. We’re deeply sorry for that.

But, we’ve finally gotten back online now, and we’re ready to resume doing what we do best - showing off cute guys (not fucking around with hardware and lost data).

We hope all our fans will please forgive us for being so tardy. Luckily in over 10 years of doing this it’s the first time this kind of thing has happened.

Thanks for sticking by us through thick and thin!

LAST BUT CERTAINLY NOT LEAST!

We want to take a moment and tell you something extremely vital.

We would be totally fucked if it weren’t for our most excellent and totally brilliant webmaster and friend, Rotten Ray.

He truly saved the day. He worked tirelessly, literally for hours and hours and hours on end - at one time for 24 hours straight - trying to retrieve data for us. He was very successful too! Without him we’d have lost even more!

He’s a true friend, and a true professional. We can’t thank him enough. Words won’t do it. Actions won’t ever be enough.

He’s the best.

Truly.
