Did Andy take his site down? I used to spend hours going through that site looking at all his photos. I'm kinda bummed... :cry:

It comes and goes. Some months it is up, some times it isn't. Andy always seems to make sure his site is back up around Halloween. I guess his life has gotten a little to busy for the upkeep of that site. I would love to see someone help him keep up with it. But of course it is just as hard to get a hold of him.

Actually, it doesn't have anything to do with time. There were some major billing mistakes that he is trying to work out with his host. Once that's all taken care of, the site will return.

Webhosting companies can be hard to work with sometimes :(

One more thing...you can read about the site issues and contact him through myspace. He isn't able to access his e-mail right now either.

Andy's had more than his fair share of trouble with his host. I hope he gets things worked out... I really enjoy his site.

So do I. I just added him to my myspace list and emailed him a message letting him know that I own a web hosting company and will hook him up if he can't get things straightened out with the current host. Sometimes when you start to have problems with these hosting companies it takes months to resolve them due to communication barriers between you and their tech support which is often times in some foreign country. It can be a real hassle.

If he needs hosting, I have a good bit of space on my HostGator account he could use.

^^^ I have my dedicated server through them and they've always been reliable for me.

I've heard good reports on HostGator as well. I'm currently with Jumpline, I like their "virtual domain" control. It gives me root access on all my sites so I can control the server. It's a bit pricey though. I need to start shopping soon... my discount finally ended and I now pay full price.

I also have a couple of sites on Startlogic and they have a similar virtual domain control with root access. I think I pay $120/year (approximately) with them.

I don't know that he's ever posted here. Most of us contact him via email or his myspace account.

...old schools for the blind, deaf, developmentally challenged (I didn't want to say retards)...

...figure I'll be able to die, since I will have accomplished all my goals from childhood....

...I read while I'm brushing my teeth, while I'm walking, and at just about any spare moment I ever have. I've actually been known to finish two 400+ page books in one day. I used to read while I drove, which I know is not the most brilliant thing in the world to do...

...horror movie called Hillbilly Holocaust, starring two gorgeous actresses and a bunch of redneck cannibals...

...girls in sexy boots(on his interests)

Andy's sense of humor never ceases to amuse me...

And the girls in boots, you can tell by the pictures of the girls on his site. :)
