Mirrorview

We just got back from my sister’s house (not Jean, but the local sister) and I’ve got to get some wallpaper stripping done quick so our contractor can resize a closet door frame in the morning. So I’ll do something quick here and post an uncropped copy of Astrid’s famous self-portrait, showing the mirror frame.

Another K3 Kwiz

Which K3 video are these outfits from?

K3 - Kristel, Karen, Kathleen

This is an easy one. They’re phoning in the answer.

If you didn’t know, that’s all right. I won’t tell them. K3 MP3 @ 256 Kbps. Crank it up!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Ding, dong, the Bush gone… well, almost. Not been posting much. Sorry! We went out to eat two nights in a row, but not tonight, because it snowed today. Still working on Eric’s computer.

To gain control over the failed drive I put it in an external PATA-to-USB case I saved after the 80 GB drive in it failed, not too long after I copied everything on it to a 160 GB USB drive, that has already been replaced with a 500 GB drive. I ran CHKDSK on the drive and it fixed a bunch of index errors. Then booting into safe mode I took ownership of all the folders of interest and I got everything worth getting off it, but I’ll still probably junk the drive, because it’s five years old. I’ll make the 2-year-old 200 GB D: drive the primary and install XP on that.
