Crash!

| | Comments (6) | TrackBacks (0)

Sorry about the scarcity of posts in the last few days. I've been very, very busy catching up with year-end movies for ten-best list considerations. Then my PowerBook slowed to a crawl and went... bits up -- just as I was in the middle of writing a review for the Sun-Times. As the guy at the Apple Genius Bar delivered the diagnosis today: "Fatal hard drive error." I don't even want to think about how many frame grabs for future Opening Shots were on that drive.

Anyway, I hope to be back up and running soon.

We miss you, but we'll be here when you get back. God, I feel your pain over that hard drive.

I was just thinking. Jim's been very very slack!

And how is Ebert doing?

That's a major bummer (if you ever need help with screen caps, I've a program and about 200 DVD's at hand should any be what you're looking for).

Yuck. You have my deepest sympathies!

I feel you Jim... I feel you. Very depressing isn't it?

That's a bummer. Gee, with your lineup of open shots gone, you may have to use something readily available! Like my shots of Brazil! Or The Producers! Or even Army of Darkness!
