Earlier on this week a squirrel, while being chased by a dog which in turn was being chased by an ostrich, managed to crawl it’s way into the Confabulators Tech Staff and chew on a few wires, This caused a multitude of problems.

1) Any content not viewable on the site (i.e. stuff that you have to click links to get to) is currently down.

2) Somewhere, most likely in Turpentine’s cranium, lies the rotting carcass of a squirrel, and frankly, it’s starting to smell, and now cats are following him around all day.

3) The ostrich and the dog reconciled their differences over glasses of sherry and fine Bolivian cigars and have now decided to go into businnes together, travelling the world to sell cheese graters.

Sorry for the inconvenience and hopefully we’ll have everything clean up soon, untill then, you can hollow out a cardboard box and cut a big rectangular hole in the front and stick it over your window and pretend the confabulators just got live video feed from just outside your house.

Cue World War 2 reel style news update Doo dee doo deee dee dooo -THIS JUST LIVE FROM THE FRONT, WHERE OUR COURAGEOUS MEN AT ARMS ARE WINNING STEADY DEFEATS OVER A VICIOUS ENEMY WHO HAS NO FEAR OF DEATH-

While the site is partially down, you do have something to look forward too, that’s right, christmas, wonderful glorious christmas, with it’s joy and happiness and the spirit of giving and whatever else it is people do when not minding the years and years of religious oppression and ethnic cleansing and so forth and so on.

Oh yeah, and a new layout for the Confabulators, that too. Gone will be the days of our linear discontent, our links shall run free like gazelle being chased down by a trigger happy englishman in a land rover sporting a .50 calibre rifle usually reserved for penetrating the engine blocks of lightly armoured vehicles.
