In order to clear up many routing glitches and install server upgrades, the internet including the world wide web will be re-booted today at 00:00 GMT (5:00 PM EDT)

Please shut down and save all work prior to this time.

And while you're waiting for the reboot to complete, check your calendar.

While waiting, I find this is a great time to rotate the air in my tires. Adding fresh air annually keeps the inside from dry-rotting.

We actually had a new troop do that once, as part of the prevent maintenance on a Army 2.5-ton truck. Good times, man; good times.

Since the reboot I can't find any of my gay biracial midget furries porn. I think they cleaned up too much.

Oh, and 00:00 GMT is 7:00 PM EDT, not 5:00. If you can't get the time right, people won't take your warnings seriously.

Have seen only a few "tricks" today.

- Google changing it's name to Topeka
- Golden Gate Bridge being disassembled

seems like this year is slightly lacking in creativity. Eh, who am I to talk? I didn't prank my co-worker this year.
