So...periodically, my ISP decides to redo their IP numbering scheme. And since I maintain my own DNS service (don't ask), I periodically must change my records to match. I am not an anal-retentive person. Promise. But I am rather paranoid when it comes to typing in concrete values (creditcard #s, auth codes, etc.) ANYWHERE.
This goes about quadruple when it comes to DNS. It's magic, folks. And not in any good way that I can see.
So you see, it comes as rather a surprise to discover, several days after the fact, that, in fact, 233 IS NOT EQUAL TO 223.
Siiiiiigh. I need to be spanked. But then again, I'll be in Tucson in a few days. Is it wrong for the Boy to do the spanking, on occasion?
