Data loss update

I talked to the computer technician that is looking at our computer last night. It appears the hard drive physically crashed. I'm not sure how much of the data on the drive is retrievable, but it's fairly certain that at least a chunk of it will be permanently lost. There was around 100GB of data on the drive. The biggest loss would be three year's worth of pictures, all of my web site files, cycling documentation, and of course the porn. I hope we luck out and retrieve the stuff that was really important.

On the bright side, we're getting a new 250GB hard drive put in so we can work hard to fill it up with crap too.

Let this be a lesson to you: "Don't put off backing up today what you can wait to back up tomorrow". Or something like that. In other words, don't be a lazy sot and plan to do it tomorrow. That goes for living in general, too.
