Technology is Awesome!

It’s amazing: the same wonderful technology that allows me to basically publish a book internationally for pennies a day also allows me to accidentally delete seven years of work in ten seconds flat. Last night I accidentally deleted several hundred files from this web site and spent a few frantic hours re-uploading as much as I could. Luckily I’m pretty good about doing back ups so I didn’t lose anything except for one new page I was working on. I’ve got most everything back online now, but thanks to a DSL line that’s been going down regularly for the past week or so* (and which I will throttle to death as soon as this post is published), there are a few pictures and some small custom touches missing from the blog. I’ll have those back soon, but hopefully no one will even notice.

If you do see anything wrong with the site though, please let me know. I’d very much appreciate it.

* Tip to DSL users: if you move into an old house and need a technician to check your phone lines more than twice because you’re DSL keeps going down, do yourself a favor and get cable internet access ASAP.
