Your page seems to be down.

But readers should try this link anyway, this is one of the best "404
error not found" pages I have ever seen. None of this smarmy "sorry
about that" stuff here. :-)

In fact I may bookmark that page... and if I've run out of bookmarks,
why, I'll use a paperclip. Remember, I'm a builder, not a collector.
Paper clips were meant to be USED, not kept in the original wrapping.
All you collectors are just going to give the scalpers at eBay something
else to chew on.

I can just see it now, scalpers descend on the local Office Depot(tm),
besiege the truck and shove the innocent secretaries aside in their rush
to get the new Wilson 2000 clips before anyone else does.

Larry, be careful, these guys are very likely to get "bent out of shape".

Sorry, but eventually, someone was going to say it.
