Maybe not to you, but it is to me. The way the comments are set up on Possumblog, I am supposed to receive an e-mail notification when someone leaves a comment. This is one of the ways that I preserve the illusion that I constantly monitor the silly thing and why I tend to chime in so quickly. But for the past three days or so (might have been longer, but I haven't noticed), I haven't been getting the notifications until late in the evening, and they come all at once.
Computers are very strange.

Posted by: skinnydan at October 5, 2006 11:37 AMI asked Chet the E-Mail Boy if he'd been messing around with things. He stammered and acted suspicious, but from past experience, I've found it useless to threaten to cut his corn flake ration or tie him down to be eaten by weasels, because he'll basically admit to anything under duress.
Failing any other rational explanation, I think it must be sunspots. Or a rash.
