That would be because Blogger is currently (10:40 pm ET) experiencing some kind of server problems. Some of my regular reads all turned up “500 – Internal Server Error”. (You geeky inquisitive types can check the RFC. Of course, if you’re that geeky, you’d already know the code.) That’s the one thing that I absolutely hated about Blogger – occasional outages when I had a creative urge. Which, as you can probably tell by looking at the number of days that pass between posts, can cause some consternation.
