Mark's bad week

Tomorrow's a day away.

1. My hard drive failed on my laptop and I lost everything. Years of data, most I hadn't backed-up. Doh!

2. I got violently sick with a virus which knocked me out for close to 3 days. Andrea and Scarlett fled to NJ to escape contamination.

3. Villa out of FA cup, out of UEFA cup, Lose to Chelsea and blow a 2 goal lead in 5 minutes of complacency against Stoke, and with it the chance of an 8 point led over Arsenal.

4. A week later I still feel like my head's exploded after inhaling the fumes from 5 spray cans. See my efforts below...

My hard drive has died a couple times in the last eight years or so, and only now I've learned my lesson and use a 1 TB external drive for backups of the important stuff, music, videos, pictures, recordings, etc.
So it may suck now, but as long as you've learned to back it up at least something good has come out of it and it won't happen again.

Now back to playing Sherlock for a second: your comment about the rabbits is making me wonder.

Rick breathed in sharpie fumes for five hours. You used up FIVE cans of spray paint and got equally buzzed, eh?

5-5 .... so what's happening on May 5th, then? Something to do with two hands of a dead man and rabbits. The mind boggles.

All the rabbits make me nervous. It makes me think that you and Rick are planning some rabbit overlord conspiracy.

Sounds like a bad week, sorry Im too compu stupid to offer any advice on the lap top trouble.

Nice art work though.

I still have no clue whats up with the rabbits.

Playing cards and a white rabbit just remind me of Alice in Wonderland.

What a bad week! As if the virus wasn't bad enough... Well, I read recently in an NYT article that putting the hard drive in the freezer overnight can help it start one last time: http://www.nytimes.com/2009/02/19/technology/personaltech/19basics.html?_r=1&pagewanted=1&em
Any experts here that can judge whether this could actually help? I'm a bit skeptical, but desperate times do call for desperate measures...
The bunnies are just as cute as Rick's

I hope the crash didn't lose any of the 'mythic' new material
Also, those rabbits look pretty swish

Steve... we were on a terrible run yep, but we deserved to win. Though I feel for you when Rafa gets his team selection so wrong like he did on Saturday. Still hope you can win the Champions League though. Can't have Man Utd winning everything can we? Hope Aston Villa can still manage a top 4 spot.

yep, as posted below there are programs you can buy or download to restore lost data but i think it really depends on how badly the thing crashed

Really sucks, espically #1 because I'd imagine a lot of the data is irreplaceable. If the hard drive still spins, then there may be a way to recover the data. More rabbits?

The last one looks like fun! And as an Arsenal supporter, I am glad that Villa drew.
The virus and the spazzy laptop doesn't sound too pleasant.
