Upgraded the blog software to version 3. More new features, more security, blah, blah, blah. I did however shun one new feature and that is the new multiuser support. It didn’t seem to jive with what I had going on already, but yet it didn’t seem to change in any fashion to break it either. [...]

Lately, my drive that contained all my music died. Well, it didn’t die, but something got corrupted and OSX absolutely refused to fix it since it was formatted FAT.
