Well, the Windows Vista install I had on this machine seems to be working much better than the MacOS install. At least for now.
Man, just ascend already.

Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Sean do you need help doing a clean reinstall of the OS?

Maybe. I've been bad about backup, so I'll need to try and pull some documents off it if I can, before I do that. My worry is that the drop damage some critical sector of the hard drive, but I guess if it's just the hard drive, it's not that bad.

I did discover that part of the badness on the Mac side is that the system keeps trying to index the drive, and getting hung up. I can't get it to stop, and everything is taking five minutes or more (or just hanging). But as I say, the Vista side seems to be running just fine.

We can put the computer in disk mode and try to pull the user data.

I am waiting for the fan installer dude to show up. The appointment is from 12-3. It's 2:40. I'm getting impatient.
Also, called mom to see if she wants to come over to be in a/c (it's 102 outside!). She hasn't responded. I'm trying to not worry.

Sean, I'm sorry about the computer. Best of luck fixing it.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
If they cannot believe that Obama is engaged in some secret plan to oppress them later, what reason do they have for voting against him?
Obama is black and they are racist. I am becoming more and more sure that it comes down just to that.

I agree.
