I haven't figured out how to do multiple 'oops' or I would.
This week has been a mess. Beyond cold, ice, snow,
power outages, doctor appointment and several
upgrades for this website, I've also been trying to
learn a complete new program. (And let's be
honest, I'm an old bat and this stuff doesn't get
any easier.) Some days you just can't get a break.
In this case the whole week has been like that.
Our apologies on the Bulletin Board. Yes, it works,
and yes, you can post photos again. But - in trying
to control the spam and porn slime balls trying to
register, we've also either slowed down or in some
cases, plain deleted people who really are fly anglers.
That's a big oops. Some have contacted us and
asked why it has taken so long (six days in one case)
and we really do feel badly about that. He was finally
included. However, if you have registered and have
not been allowed, please do let me know. I really am
sorry. Please keep in mind, we're getting hundreds of
registrations every day. You think your email is bad?
I receive about a thousand a day.
You will note we are short some articles this week.
We are rebuilding the site from the bottom up, and
it is taking more time than we expected. It will get
better. You may not notice anything on your end as
you read FAOL, well, except pages and photos should
load faster for you. If you are on a slow dial-up you may
not see any differences at all.
Think you have 'cabin fever'? I'm really ready to bug out.
On the other hand, Neil Travis has an article this week
which is about as close as I'll get. Do yourself a favor,
get a fresh cup of coffee and read
High Summer. You'll be glad you did.
You can do something for us 'tho. Here's a way to get
rid of the cabin fever, do something constructive (and fun)
for your fellow readers here. Write something. A Fly of
the Week is always great, but not everyone has the
photographic equipment to pull that off - if you do, by all
means, send one in. But anyone who has fished over
the past year just has to have a story. What was the
'biggie' this year? Where did you go? What did you
do? Catch anything? Have any really super events?
Get lost? Fall in? Teach someone a trick or two?
Something about a Fish-In?
Well, how about sharing it with us all? Send to:
publisher@flyanglersonline.com .
Trust me, if you do, you'll feel better too. ~ The LadyFisher
