[...] I was a VenomPages girl for over a year (Kate, I’ll always be one, because you rock), but a series of unfortunate events (which were through no fault of the Venomous One; rather, they were due to what we at NASV call “rack fuckwittage“) dictated that those who “got byte” would be biting the dust, hosting-service-wise. Kate always delivered top-notch service and support, so I was sad to hear she was calling it quits. [...]

Resovled…

I’d like to begin this post with a big fat “THANK YOU” to all who hung around waiting for the server issues to be resolved, leaving comments whenever you could, all wrought with patience and support. Thank you. As you may have guessed…

Thanks for letting us know about this.

I don’t know what I’d do if I lost… it would be like three and a half years now – worth of entries.

“So. Martinis are in order for the night.” — Kate

May I suggest a blenton?

Regular gin martini and vermouth with a dash of bitters and a thin bit of peel from a fresh lemon.

Enjoy,

Chuck(le)
P.S. Another variation is the classic gin and vermouth with a jalopeno stuffed olive.

Nope. That name doesn’t ring a bell. But I am an uber-perfectionist, and particularly so when it comes to delivering what I’ve promised to others.

It rips my guts out to kill VenomPages. But I will not compromise customer service.

Unfortunately, I’ve already paid for this year’s rental from the crappy company. That’s a cost I’m willing to bite if it keeps others from being bit, but it’s not fun.

So. Martinis are in order for the night.

Hm… Lemme change that. Martinis are on order for tonight.

Oh, Miguel…..?

“Why does the name “Jace Herring” sound so damn familiar?” — sadie

A former paramour, perhaps?

Or did you have to change your [domain] name too; because of his refusal to release it to your control?

Regards,

Chuck(le)
P.S. He’s probably changed his legal name by now, one would think.

RE: Are We Learning, Yet?

Hopefully you were not involved with one each Jace Herring. I was burned by his blog hosting efforts. Your experience sounds vaguely reminiscent of what I went through about a year ago. And, just maybe, he was having the same experience you were, but he didn’t handle the transition very well.

Good Luck,

Irony indeed, and such a bummer that VenomPages shall be vanishing into the ether. You’ve gone beyond the call of duty by providing notice and refunds of 2 months.

Of course, it’s always good news to know the Venomous Blog shall remain!
