Gentlemen Officers:
I have encountered a personal tragedy tonight. It seems my good and faithful horse (i.e. my computer's hard drive) has met a sudden demise. I fear that it is also probably irrevocable. Now a throughly competent officer would have stored the genetics (i.e. routinely backed up all of the information on the drive) of such a valient steed, so that it could be recreated in a similar likeness. It so happens that I have not held to the practices of a thoroughly competent officer and am therefore consigned to walking, at least for a time. Being that we are living in the past anyway, such genetic science does not exist in our Napoleonic world. I am, for all intents and purposes, screwed.
I should have a new hard drive delivered on Monday. Just be warned, I will be hitting some of you up for a lot of files (graphics mods, Hanoverian graphics, AAA records, etc.). Unless I can recover the data, which is not looking good at this point, I have lost everything.
Andy, I know you will read this, please let Mike know that my training of him is going to be slightly delayed. He was offline until Saturday anyway due to a move, so I should not be too many days in arrears when he brings his system back online.
Yes, Helga, please do keep the Jagermeister's coming.
