The others are right. Your brickboard browser cookies likely became corrupt due to some change Jarrod was making at the time. Just delete the brickboard cookies in your browser and start over.
Since Randy wanted to know what happened, I offer the following explanation. It's not important, just for extra course cedits.
The per cent % sign is used in cookie text fields as a prefix for punctuation, reserved or unprintable characters when they are to be taken as part of the text field rather than as a character with some special meaning.
For example, in %3A the two characters after the per cent sign are to be taken as the hexadecimal representation of a binary code for a single character rather than as the text "3A". Hexadecimal 3A (58 in decimal) is the binary code commonly used to represent the colon : character. So the time field 8:37 gets stored internally as 8%3A37.
Similarly, %40 is used for the at sign "@" in e-mail addresses.
For your cookies, at some point the per cent in the %3A likely got doubled up or lost its special meaning as a hex prefix. This was likely due to a temporary programming problem.
If you aren't familiar with cookies then read the site FAQ and use your browser help function. Each browser saves them a little differently.
