THE JUSTIN HAS COME BACK… TO THE INTERNET.
Huzzah!
So. Almost two months later, i am teh back. And i’m pretty sure that i’ve lost at least 97% of all my daily visitors. Oh well. They probably thought i died or something. And it didn’t help that i never bothered replying to any of the emails that i’d gotten while the site was gone. Seriously, i’m such a prick like that. But yeah, thanks to Americo, Phil, Rob, Bubba, Sean, Brent, Redeye, 15 year old Kingolf and the rest of you all who e-mailed asking what happened to the site and offering to help out with getting it back online.
So. Why the almost 2 month break?

Tada!
But as much as you’d like to think that was the case; that i got sued by Libby Hoeler or whatever, it’s wasn’t. Libby Hoeler had nothing to do with the site being down. But it would’ve been pretty cool if it did wouldn’t it?
The real reason why the site was down… was because of a server switch. I know. Pretty boring reason eh? Apparently my site was overloading the old server too much. So my host had to move me to another server where i wouldn’t be bringing all the other sites on the solosnet network down with me when i do overload the server which i know i’ll still be doing due the crazy amount of traffic this site draws. Well… used to draw anyway. My 6000+ hits a day have now dwindled down to something like… ooh… zero hits a day. But that’s the nature of having a site that’s been down for so long i guess.
Anyhow, the only reason the server switch took so long was because well, my host was *ehem* too busy (procrastinating) to get it up sooner.
Oh well. I can’t really complain seeing as to how i’m hosted for free.
But yeah, i got e-mailed by Libby’s laywer/mom(?). Probably the worst laywer ever. She actually left a comment on the site threatening to press charges or something. And you’d think that she’d have the sense to leave that comment on the offending post itself but nooo, she left it on one the older Libby posts from way back in December 2001. At first i thought that it was just a prank. In fact, i was almost certain that it was because of all the bad spelling. Some guy even left a comment after that saying something to the extent of “Boy, for a lawyer, you sure don’t know how to spell”.
In addition to leaving a comment, the lawyer actually did e-mail me. But for some reason, her e-mails never reached my inbox properly. It got buried with all the other September e-mails, even though she sent the e-mails in December. I say “e-mails” because she sent me the same e-mail twice.
Why? Well, if you look closely at the e-mail above, you’ll see her telling me to get rid of the Libby stuff by December 15th, 2003. She corrected herself the second time around though but what the hell. I’m just gonna disregard her second e-mail and leave the Libby stuff online anyway. Besides, she can’t really do that. Telling me to take down that post. It’s not like i even have the videos hosted on my site. I don’t even have any pictures of Libby on here. And what pictures there are in that post are hosted on another site. I only linked to them. Why doesn’t she just go after that site instead of mine? Aaaand, Freedom of Speech? Hello?
Of course, i could be wrong and she could probably sue the pants off of me and i could probably get thrown in jail or something but hey, if i’m wrong, you’d tell me right? And then i’ll just take down the post. But for now, i’m just gonna leave it up.
I will give you until 5:00 p.m. e.s.t on December 15, 2003 to do so.
Tee hee.
Anyway, the site’s back up. Tell all your friends about it.
Oh and you might run into some broken image links here and there. I didn’t exactly make a full backup before the site went down. So bear with me on the red x’s. I’ll try to fix them all if i can. By the way, Google needs to spider my site back into it’s database. I’m not even on there anymore =(
Anyhow, it’s good to be back. Plug me if you have a site.
1st post back…woot!!!

ohh yeah……Anyone else wanna email Libby’s mom and tell her how hot those vids are?
#2 | Comment by bligityblah — February 10, 2003 @ 1:52 am
Wow, we’re all getting back into this. My lawyer says that there’s a pretty good chance that I’ll be able to win my court case and get the cease-and-desist order I’ve had against my site dropped by the time Daredevil hits the theaters.
With regard to the whole Libby thing, I’m doubting it’s even in the power of a lawyer to keep you from linking to something on another site, which was the very basic crux of the 2600 side of the DeCSS case. I’m speaking lawyerese for, "Bitch ain’t got a leg to stand on," although you might want to research that case to see where the law stands at the moment. Regardless, you’ve got until the end of the year.
And I’m just going to say it here, because I can’t say it on my own website for another week or so: Fuck Ben Affleck. Fuck him up his stupid ass. Ben Affleck is fucking Clown Shoes.

WOOHOO! Finally teh Justin is back! Damn…seems like it’s been longer than 2 months, huh? The rumors were partially true…almost everyone I talked to said the site was down due to Libby’s "people" threatening a law suit. Maybe now that you’re back you’ll even make a new layout, eh? Great to finally have one of the best reads on the internet back in action.
p.s. Libby + her "people" + Affleck = size XXL clown shoes

Leave withing saying anything!!! Not that you got the means to say anything though..hehhe.
Then again, think you should thank the fubar girls (give each a present :þ ) for helping you answers all those questions about you. Imagine 6000+ hits…divided among the few girls..eve,thess,suzi,liz,meg etc…they each have around 1000 people to answer to!!!

#19 | Comment by luke — February 10, 2003 @ 9:30 am
If it is just an email and a post its just a threat, don’t do jack shit until you get an actual letter from a law firm, then its still up to you until they actually file a legal complaint, thats pretty general, but an email is just a threat, nothing more.
#20 | Comment by That Guy — February 10, 2003 @ 9:40 am
change your stats to ‘lost 96%’ of your daily, *ahem* hourly at work, visitors. See you at 9.

Also, what better way to make a video clip more sought after than trying to get it barred everywhere! I’m sure ignoring it and getting on with your life would have been easier!!!
#51 | Comment by RTA — February 10, 2003 @ 11:23 pm
What is so funny is that most of the old regulars all noticed "The Return" so fast. I take it I was not the only one staring at that other horrible blue cobalt screen in shock for the last two months.

What’s up, Nick? How’s that update coming along?
#55 | Comment by thess — February 11, 2003 @ 3:14 am
Okay, folks, you know what? Pity. The boards won’t be back up. Get used to it. I’m sorry to be the bearer of bad news and such, but the immense popularity of the boards was part of the reason the site seized in the first place. Ergo, you can either have a) no site, with boards; or b) a site without boards. Personally, I prefer the latter, and that’s what you’re gonna get.
Christ, who needs boards when you can bitch about the articles in the comment section? I can only WISH I could do that kind of thing on my site.

How come all of you are so old? What could there possibly be left once you’ve reached 20?
I mean, your youth is over and you’re going to die soon. Why do people keep on living?
To be so old, and frail… Not being able to go to the toilet alone, must be a serious pain in the ass.
Also, there’s no b(.)(.)bs for old people. Well, there’s possibly some, somewhere around the knees, but that’s just yucky.
What’s the point in living past twenty?

#61 | Comment by luke — February 11, 2003 @ 8:36 am
"What’s the point in living past twenty?"
…..More like what’s the point of living past sixty, but whatever. You could go as far as saying, what’s the point of living if you’re not going to do anything with your life? Or what’s the point of living if the ones you care for most pass away? Or what’s the point of living if all you do is comment on stupid questions all day/night?=)
Answer: What, you didn’t really expect me to go anywhere with this did you?

Whoa. That lawyer’s office is right down the street from my family’s business offices. I wonder is Libby is living in Indy. Definitely a place to hide, being that everyone here is backwards and retarded. They know nothing of the interweb, much less its masturbating-on-video celebrities.

Just in case if anyone was wondering about her Mom or whatever I wanted to see if her e-mail address was actually legit so I ran nslookup on it and it’s legit and she also has her own web page on there as well. Just thought you might find it funny or interesting.
