Opening band pages is better now, but not perfect. For instance, Frank Zappa's page would take about 45 seconds to open on my computer before the upgrade. It's down to about 20 seconds now. i can live with that.

EVOLVER, as for the server processing power, you need to look at the PAGE FOOTER note Server processing time: 0.92 seconds . If it takes 45s or 20s to get all the page loaded, it's either your browser (computer) is slow or your ISP , are you using a MODEM 14.4 Kbps ?

On a not related subject. There is a couple of bands in PA with a very considerable following of young and very attractive women. They are also operating here. Off course all is morally proper and all above board. But there is actually hope for those of you seeking female companionship through PA after all. Btw. When is the Jazz archives up and running ? |

Sorry to disappoint you, but there is already one on the net. It has ratings of all major escorte agencies and their staff world wide. I also believe there is a male escorts rating website on the net. Some females in Scandinavia also set up a "rate your boyfriend/one night stand" website which created a heck of a lot media exposure over there. In particular because it included the names and photos. One night stands got their ratings the day after their bedsheets performance posted on the net......... detailed reviews. It made several adonises impotent for a while. Edit: A female collegue has just whispered in my ear that there is a very much used gigolo/male escort website covering all major cities which is extensive used by female jetsetters and business women. Sorry M@X but you have to come up with something more original than this.

Oh noes! I hate to report bad news, but whilst attempting to go to an external link on the forum, instead of sending me to that link, it gave me this message:
