Woke up one morning and Ace of Spades HQ was gone. I've seen AoS have problems, but never the "servers unavailable" message.

Thoughts at 6 o'clock while AoSHQ is unavailable...
OMG, they finally got Ace!
I knew I should've made another donation of support!
Oboy! They're installing the new software!
All those helpless morons, starting blankly!
Vic, helplessly struck alone with all the news!
Hey, how would I contact anyone? I don't do FB or Twit.
Where's the backup blog?
What am I going to do while I drink coffee & wake up?
[Real-time content moved from top of post.]
Final report: AoS was not completely repaired as of this morning (2014 May 14 Wed) but was pretty much back in full operation. No more updating to this post.
Since at least 6am CDT the Ace of Spades blog is down.
As of 2:30pm CDT, it's still down.As of 6:45pm CDT, the blog is available again, with many things missing, but coming back.This is what I was looking for! The Ace of Spaces Blackout Blog
11:30am CDT, email from Maetenloch, who enlightened me about the Pixy tweet below.
Pixy's server had a meltdown. Whatever that means. This post will be updated when I have anything new.
@physicsgeek Raid controller failed and kindly wiped the main RAID array. Going to take a few hours to put everything back again...

((Earlier worries, now somewhat abated:))
I've written Maetenloch, because I don't have any other ready contacts from the moron horde.
No reply yet (it's only been a few minutes).I know Mindful Webworks is hardly a place any 'Morons' might drop by, but if by chance anyone should happen by as a result of a search or something, if you know anything about what's up with AoSHQ, or just want to start a rumor, post a comment below. Thanks.

I'm going all out for the ticket this election!
Even though it's more than two years off!
It's an act of love that takes a village!

Here's some "variations":
and the ever-popular
We had just moved the family to Oklahoma from Chicago one year before. Our neighbor asked, had I heard about the explosion in OKC? I tuned in to TV; Tulsa channel was carrying OKC channel.
I remember, right at the first, the sketches of John Doe the Iraqi. The reports of multiple bombs still in the building. The latter may have been fog of war, the former...?
And the babies...!
I will always vividly remember, after watching the news a while, walking out and looking up at that beautiful blue Oklahoma morning sky, so like today, just wondering that anyone would do this.
One consideration for our relocation had been, we were living in a Major Target City and I had a funny feeling the WTC bombing was just a beginning. Then the worst terrorist attack to date happens 90 miles down the road. Felt a little like that Hiroshima survivor who thought the mushroom cloud had followed him home to Nagasaki.
That friend of McVeigh's who knew but didn't tell? I still wonder if he knows more than he's told. Or, anyway, than we know about. There are mysteries....
When Harry Truman left office,
he drove himself and Bess
back to Missouri.
When Barack Obama is done,
perhaps he can drive
himself and the beard
back to Hawaii.
