Just Isn't The Same
I had disconnected from the 'net, then decided I'd go get my Bings Rewards points and opened up my Edge Browser (a few more points by using it) and got this error message.
It's good to know they think the web isn't the same without me, but to be truthful, I'm not the same w/out the web. I've tried all kinds of vices in my life and never had any real problems with any of them (except smoking) and could lay them down, quit without much problem, but I really do miss the Internet when I am offline.
I *might* have a problem, but AFAIC, it's not all that bad. Sure, I waste a LOT of time online, but it's not ALL wasted; I can honestly say I learn something new each and every day.
Besides that, all my friends live in my computer!
I know I'm not "connected". Otherwise I'd have friends named Big Pussy, Sal and Tony and a good no-show job for the local waste management concern.

I Had to Google This
I've received other Google error pages before, but never a 404 page.
I kept trying again to reach my Gmail account and kept getting the following until about the fourth time when I got an explanation page that there was "something wrong with your cookies." I figured it couldn't be MY fault since they're the ones that like to put them on my computer and track me all across the World Wide Web.
Deleted cache and cookies and everything was copacetic. I am loathe to delete my browser cache until necessary, esp. since I now have to pay for my data usage.
Click graphic for larger view. Gotta love the Google 'bot, huh?
"That's all we know." They probably know more about me than did my mom.
