Blog.Dreamhost WordPress Error?

I sometimes see strange stuff with Tor. That said, does anybody else see the following at DreamHost's blog?

iThug.com?

= = =
WordPress
Error establishing a database connection

This either means that the username and password information in your wp-config.php file is incorrect or we can't contact the database server at mysql.ithug.com. This could mean your host's database server is down.

* Are you sure you have the correct username and password?
* Are you sure that you have typed the correct hostname?
* Are you sure that the database server is running?

If you're unsure what these terms mean you should probably contact your host. If you still need help you can always visit the WordPress Support Forums.

That's what I see -- and it took forever to load.

I don't know what ithug.com usually is, but right now it seems to be a blank page that's registered to Dallas.

The last two posts at dreamhoststatus.com have been about server relocating, so I don't know if they're shuffling stuff around and maybe it's related to that.
