I have not gotten it once since I finished cleanup. Did you get it before or after you read my post about the cleanup?
After Admittedly a small sample but I got 2-3 500 errors just trying to make the post. The board does seem faster, again with a small sample size and on just one machine and network

Anything in PolitiVOL, the Ticket Exchange, the Test Forum, and the Archive (which is where deleted posts end up) that hasn't been touched in the last year is gone. Anything in the main forum that hasn't been touched in 2 years is now gone. Tables have been optimized, logs have been cleaned up, etc.
The board seems faster to me now. Maybe this will fix the "internal server error" issues. If anybody sees that, let me know.
I will try to do a better job of staying on top of this going forward.
Still getting Error 500 - Internal server error An internal server error has occured! Please try again later.

ATLANTA (AP) -- A former University of Georgia football coach has been accused in court documents of making millions of dollars from a Ponzi scheme.
The federal documents filed this week in bankruptcy court in Ohio contend that Jim Donnan and his wife, Mary, attracted investments for GLC Ltd., which filed for bankruptcy in February.
The documents claim the Donnans made commissions for new investments. It claims Donnan invested more than $5.4 million in the company and that his family ultimately made more than $14.5 million.
Donnan and his wife filed for bankruptcy protection this month. GLC is being restructured, and the documents were filed by the company's current operators.
Donnan's attorney, Ed Tolley, didn't return calls seeking comment Saturday, but he has denied allegations of wrongdoing.
It was a German ponzi scheme: http://volstothewall.com/board/index.php?topic=20487.0

I will not be leaving the office early today. This asshat mortgage company can't get it together and get me the loan package so I can close out this purchase until this afternoon. Asshats. It's raining anyway.
Thank you. That is all. Carry on.

A lot of fans have that perception but I don't think that's factual at all. They will spend money and have spent it, they just haven't been great at talent evaluation lately.

We are currently looking at the tailgate location since The Credit Union is doing some things but will probably be in the same place as last year> I will try to keep everyone apprised of where are going to be. For the first game I have already made a plan......
One of my loves in cooking is doing a Fusion of Southern methods of prep or Southern materials with a different style of prep than Southerners normally do. This year for the first game will see a return of the Music City Bowl Gyro Fest with some great Lamb and Beef Gyros but (wait for it) the twist will be is that I am going to smoke the meat after marinating in the gyro seasoning mixture. By using some milder woods I think a new great gyro sandwich can be developed that will make the tzatiki sauce even better with the meat and the meat will be tender and delicious.
So keep a watch on this site for more Tailgate updates and we will see you the first week in September.
I'm in - they were GREAT at the MCB!

I knew when you wanted to absolutely kill everything in an area the AC-130 was the tool for the job. I did not know the Warthog had so much firepower though. I also did not know the Warthog was as nimble and agile as it is. That was some impressive aerobatics. The most impressive aerial demonstration I saw (before the F-22) was an A-10. You have to know the airfield layout to get the full effect but he took off in minimum distance, sucked the gear up and rolled to 60 degrees right and racked the aircraft around the control tower, waving to the contollers as his canopy passed by the tower cab. Very impressive beginning to the demonstration. As for Spectre (actually Spooky since it was an AC-130U), "You can run but you will only die tired." It's too bad none of the video is in the public domain but the the video of the two gunships taking down the Comandancia (sp) in Panama City the first night of the Panama take over was VERY impressive.
