Too busy? Too busy? Just who does MetaFilter think it is? If it thinks I'm going to sit and wait and pine for its attentions, it's got another think coming. I'm gonna go get me some MeCha.
I can finally see it at home again: apparently I had done some stupid edit to my HOSTS file awhile back to point to some other IP address to Mefi and then totally forgotten about it...
