Technical difficulties

Say, have you ever had your hard drive crash? Suddenly? For no particular reason, with no particular warning? Yeah, me too. Replaced said hard drive, and gosh, all of my photos are, ahem, gone. Yes, I know, they should've been backed up somehow, burned to disc, etc. Guess what? Some of them were. Lots of them weren't. Guess I won't make that mistake again. So, as we reload stuff onto our computer, I'll need some time to get back into the loop, as it were.
