Shameless Self-Promotion

I was hoping to write about something else today, but I just got back to my computer and
when I tried to go to my yahoo mail, or startribune.com, or even cnn.com, I got the following:
Access to this web page is restricted at this time.
The site you are attempting to access is currently blocked as part of an access control
system managed by XXXXX IT. This site has been categorized as one of thousands of sites
that are restricted in order to comply with XXXXX's Policies. It is difficult to
categorize the millions of sites on the Internet, and it is possible that this site
was blocked unintentionally. If you have a legitimate business purpose for accessing
this site, contact the Technology Support Center at 952-XXX-XXXX.
Ok, I don't have a legitimate reason to access my yahoo email besides the fact that if
this morning they've made the decision to not allow access these sites... that's just
ridiculous.
I'm hoping this is a some strange crash/bug/whatever... but if not, be prepared for
some seriously bitter rants.
With that being said, I am about to attempt to publish the
4th Annual Austin Bar Crawl.
So check it out... it's quite possibly the best bar crawl article yet.
Oh, and if the link from the main page doesn't quite work, or look right... don't
blame me... blame our IT staff... f-ers!
