We have a temporary power outage so the broadcast will be down until it is restored. We will let you know when it's available.
Thank you for your patience!

Gerbils?!?! Are you nuts!! We use cats! We dangle mice in front of them (or katnip) and they run like crazy. Remember, UAB is a powerful broadcast, and we need all the power we can get. The problem we have is sometimes, the cat gets the mouse (or the nip) and we either have to wait for the cat to be hungry again (or come down from it's high) or get a new cat.
We're waiting to see which we need to do.

Um, my cat generally sleeps most of the day so I did not realize how much untapped potential was actually there...Also, as a Disney type site wouldn't it be better to dangle "unspecified rodents" just in case a certain Corporate Icon is reading this? |

We originally had dogs but the Goofy/Pluto Coalition got involved so we had to resort to another animal. We had thought of Chipmunks, ducks, cows, mice, imaginary creatures, etc. All drew exception. Cats seemed to be the only one that everyone could except.

I guess Black Pete was not asked.
As long as Mickey does not mind his possible kin be used as an incentive, who I am to complain |

It does appear that the broadcast is down. Cause is not yet known but we'll get things working again ASAP.
Thank you for your patience.
