Oh yeah now I have something to post about...

My computer bombed out on me again last week. I am really, really wanting a Mac very badly. Infact I would like one so bad that I am willing to take donations :)

Ok back to the story. My CPU crapped up again, sometimes randomly shutting down by itself and other things of the sort. Well on top of that I contracted a virus, usually not a big deal for me since I am ok with the occasional format. However this virus was different. It effected my entire computer, including the separate drive that I keep all of my back-up information on, aka all of my music. Yes that's right I lost all 25 Gigs of music that I had on my computer. The one bright-side was that I was able to salvage all of my pictures, if I had lost those, Massie would have been taking pictures of me throwing my tower off the balcony outside.

So now the painstaking process of importing all of my CDs back into iTunes and on to my computer has commenced. I am not quite sure how long it will take me to fully recover from this loss, please be praying for me during this time.

That's nothing. In the Navy I was required to wear a computer around my wrist that was suppose to plot out a course for me when spotting. It crapped out on me and I landed almost 13 miles off course. On top of that, I had to wear a wet suit underneath my jumpsuit which made me so heavy I could barely stay above water. I waited almost 9 hours before being picked up. All because of a computer.

What kind of cam do you use?

Of course, if you had lost your pictures, at least Massie would've had some new ones to upload in memorial. Just saying.

That being said, it is the suck that you have to deal with such an invasive virus.

Most don't like my picture of Jesus. They think its heresy. I think its out of date. It should be an M4.

I think the Jesus pic is funny...if it's supposed to be political, I don't know what the heck it means. I'd love to see what pictures Jesus would take of himself with a digital camera;-)

It means Jesus wrote the Second Amendment. "If you can't afford a rifle, sell your cloak and go buy one."

Don't get me started. I've been getting hate mail for the last couple days from Christian hippies wearing tin foil hats about my latest post on my blog about the Iraq War. Its funny that the unbelievers who post on my site in disagreement are so respectful but when a Christian disagrees I often have to junk their comment due to profanity, and the ones that make it through just insult me for a whole paragraph.
