Up and Running Again
I’ve switched hosts after my former provider, AffordableHost.com, lost a gazillion websites due to a RAID failure. Supposedly. They had no backup, either. I wonder if they’ve ever heard of redundancy?
Regardless, I’m still deciding on templates and that sort of thing.
In more important news, please send good thoughts - prayers, if you can - to my friend Fred Salik. You can read about what happened to him here.

Dear All, Salama alykoum and peasce be upon you…
I just heard the news that our friend passed away last night (Sunday 28th Jan07). He has gone through 13 mnth os coma and all of us,,all over the globe were praying for his well being, and for his family in this tight situation. We are all sadened by the news. May we all pray for his soul to be blessed… Fouad Salik lighened so many hearts and put a smile on many many people’s faces. I only me him once in London abt 5 years ago, and all I could say of him he was the sweetest and lented most inteligent person I have met.Please spare him prayers. Inna li Allahi was Inna Ilayhi Raje3oon.

[…] I only spoke to Fred on the phone, but he was one of the kindest and most helpful people I’ve ever had the pleasure of knowing. He spent a lot of time helping me sort out a problem with tickets bought from an airline consolidator, even going to far as to tell them I was his sister so they’d discuss the issue with him! I’m sorry I never got a chance to welcome him to our home in Morocco, I hope his family sees this and knows that they’re just as welcome. I’d like to hug his poor mother right now. […]
