on the 4th day of vacation.

Yesterday at some point the drive that hosted/held all my shit on my server decided life was no longer worth working. All the sudden my share on the server had nothing in it all my pictures GONE! I had the foresite a few weeks ago to backup the photos as i noticed a few had seem to gone bad so i ran the linux version of checkdisk/scandisk it found some problems, bad clusters/blocks. I removed the bad pics then backed them up. last night i recovered from back up but lost all photos since the backup including Crater lake. This sucks yes but it could have been upwards of 2GB that was lost which is muc much worse than a couple weeks and a few hundred megs. So remember boys and girls make backs ups. I lost a lotta crap. Like the whole dev copy of junknstuff. Tiffanys stuff is fine so is Nathans this is one of the reasons diffrernt users get diffrent drives that way only 1 person gets screwed no everyone. I will most likely hack my self a back routine from some shell scripts soon to help prevent this in the future...

On the plus side Another laptop is sold. we got the server to handle the printing form Tiffanys powerbook where as the Dell running windows 2k did not like printing for the powerbook at all. Right now the plan for the dell is Digital pictureframe. We need to go to a craft store and pickup a shawdow box and matting.

Also I plan to do replace the brake light switch on my car. The switch was in portland last night so hopefuly here in Eugene, as today was scheduled delivery date.

8:59pm: Made a digital picture frame today. Got a page for that on the way.

Tiffany is now shopping around for a laptop to make another frame out of.

Fixed my brake light circuit for my car.

Have started to rebuild my dev copy of junknstuff.
