As the designated techo-dweeb, I know I should have backed up SFOD even more than normal because of Darren’s uncanny superpower of defeating technology.  For killing it’s ability to simplify tasks. From near and far. And over the network. On a system he only logged in to edit through a well-known package.

The flip side is, FatCow was being very very painful to work with on the database issues, so the site has been moved to BlueHost.  We’re recreating the posts and fortunately all of the flat file backups were just peachy, so Darren’s not having to scavenge images for days again.

Oh and I somehow didn’t notice I hadn’t enabled any prettier URLs for SFOD, so I’ve fixed that.  Update your links where appropriate since post IDs will be different and now just ugly old reminders of a painful few days

I’m Darren, I’ll be your host for this cruise. Now, you are booked on the Lido Deck, drinks will be at the pool and of course you will be seated at the Captain’s Table tomorrow night. In actuality, I am an Aquarian, a huge comic book fan, and gayer than Christmas.

So, why this blog? There’s only like a gazillion out there. Well, good question. I live my life with my feet firmly in two separate worlds. One in the comic book fandom world where bright and shiny icons of justice fight the good fight against villainy and the other foot firmly in the mundane world where I exist as a gay man in a world that isn’t quite as shiny and has more than it’s share of villainy and a deficit of heroes.

And what does the title of the blog mean anyway?

“Super Friends of Dorothy” is a take off of the phrase “Are you Friends of Dorothy?” which was a phrase used around and after World War II when being gay was illegal. This was a coded way to investigate your intended paramour to see if they were open to more More >
