It has just come my attention that Postum is a thing of the past, it always was a thing from the past, but now it is a thing OF the past.
This is a terrible, terrible situation!

It’s cold tonight here in St. George, and I want to snuggle up and sip a nice, warm, full bodied, and slightly sweet beverage before I catch the night train, but alas it’s not to be :(

Yahoo Email Problems

Yahoo Email Problems

It seems that Yahoo is deferring or blocking a portion of the email we send users with a yahoo.com email address.

I am jumping through all the hoops* that may help the problem. In the meantime, if you want, you could send a message to the Yahoo email people and request that they quit being mean to Tanga and let our email through.

Hey, Gang,

I’m gone for 8-9 days, off to have some birthday fun in NYC. Play nice. And if you don’t want to play nice, talk to renfurdson :)

Wife is Away, Time for Dad (and 3 Kids) to Play in SLC!

The wifey is heading down to Scottsdale AZ with some girlfriends to “escape” – whatever that means! :-) I mean common’, my mom had 7 of us and she never “escaped!” LOL

So I’m taking the kidos up to SLC for the weekend to visit some family, go on some rollercoasters (if the rain doesn’t come) and eat some good food. (Red Mango, Brick Oven.)

I will have a 4.5 hour drive with three kids under

Colds Suck

Colds Suck

I’ve had a pretty bad cold since last Saturday. I had a scheduled annual checkup with my doctor yesterday and he said “Yes, you have a cold.”

Why haven’t they cured this disease yet? :/

Bailout or No Bailout?

Bailout or No Bailout?

Hey Tanganites – what do you think of the bailout issue and how it’s affecting the stock market and the economy? Do you think we need government interventions in the market and if so, is the current plan the right one? Or should we let these over-extended institutions fail on their own and let capitalism work alone?

Also, how is this downturn in the economy affecting your spending habits? And

TangaMonkey has been papertrading some Forex EA (Expert Advisors) and has been creating his own robots. It’s been a lot of fun to learn more about currencies and how to trade them. Anyone here a currency trader?

Good Bye, Summer

Good Bye, Summer

Well, summer. It was good knowing you.

In Seattle, we see the sun for maybe two months a year. I try to take advantage of it as much as possible during the months of July and August, to the detriment of my beloved Tanga.com.

Unfortunately, Seattle won’t see sun for another 10 months, so I can get to work again! I’m actually looking forward to it. Gotta get that awful sandal tan line off

We're Retiring the 4am & 10pm Unfeatured Puzzles

When the Mods started in June we had 22 pages of puzzles in our queue, each page having 51 puzzles on it.

We’re down to 2 pages.

I can’t tell you how proud I am of the Mods and the work they’re doing. Yeah, they’re not perfect, but Tanga is definitely better off with them around. And if not Tanga, then at least me – I’m absolutely better off with the Mods on the job :)

So, with

How was your weekend? + comments

Mine was pretty good.

Small update: I’ve removed the “flag comment” functionality for the time being, I heard reports that it was being abused. Moderators can still remove stupid comments though.

We’ll address the issue of people solving 100,000 puzzles in an hour with a internet cheat guide soon.
