The lack of posts over the weekend

The volume of Christmas gifts being returned over the weekend must have been higher than normal (most people would blame the slow economy, but I know better...we have a lot of secret projects underway at the moment) as the weight of said items appears to have created a black-hole-like mass near my computer that does not allow for Internet traffic to escape. It appears that today the mass has dissipated, and that the supply of posts will now cease to be interrupted. We have scientists working overtime on this phenomenon, but we don't have any publishable results just yet. Thank you all for your patience.
