If you tried to access the site yesterday, you probably found it a slow load – if it loaded at all.

That’s because some dastardly, rotten, no-good email spammer hacked into the server and used a forgotten test blog to send upwards of a quarter million emails. The server crashed, but fortunately my fabulous web guy, Steve, at DataWebPro, brought her back to life again.

Now, you may remember that Steve provided me with an incantation to solve database errors.

Well, I have a prayer for anyone affected by spammers and it goes like this:

May the fleas of a thousand camels infest the crotch of the person who screws up your day and may their arms be too short to scratch… AMEN

Many thanks to my nephew Andrew for sending that prayer to me. I’ve had it up on my bulletin board for years, and always knew there would come a good time to share it.
