Death, taxes, and lost data
Three things are certain:
Death, taxes, and lost data.
Guess which has occurred.
A file that big?
It might be very useful.
But now it is gone.
Error messages
cannot completely convey.
We now know shared loss.
Windows NT crashed.
I am the Blue Screen of Death.
No one hears your screams.
No one hears me kicking my computer case either, except maybe the neighbors who share that wall.
Guess what happened to my PC over the weekend? Yeah. Fun. Fortunately the problem seems to be on one of the hard drives, and the machine runs (shoddily) on one drive, so I spent last night (and will undoubtedly spend tonight as well) backing up stuff to CD.
Free advice from me: CNet’s Kontiki Delivery Manager is the scourge of mankind and should be removed from your computer immediately after it oh-so-helpfully installs itself. If your machine locks up during uninstall, BACK UP NOW, because Windows is now spiralling towards oblivion and you just don’t know it yet.
Also, don’t run Open Office, Kazaa Lite, and Mozilla all at once. It angers the gods of freeware and lo! they shall smite you for your hubris, puny human.
(Actually, I’m pretty sure it was the stupid Kontiki dren that did it, but it never hurts to appease the gods of freeware, eh?)

Gwen? You mean there were even more characters? I saw Conner in the two episodes I watched last season with Faith. Five minutes of him on the screen was five minutes too much.

Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
No, my wish list is pretty much in line with yours. I would add that Gunn should revert to the badass he was when he went off with Gwen last season. Now that was a fun episode.
