August 2007


With the upcoming Nuptials of Mr. and Soon-to-be-Mrs. Helfrich, comes the necessary Bachelor/Bachelorette outings. Brian, being the unique and extraordinary guy he is, shied away from the traditional voyeuristic fare, and decided to embrace nature in a less “as-nature-made-you” sort of way.

So we went camping

And we learned a few things about dogs. First, if you’re drowning, but can still grip a dog’s tail, you should be OK if Ramsi is around:

Next, if you should be fishing, do NOT let Ramsi in the water, because retrievers like to retrieve things… like bobbers.

Otherwise, lay back, drink, and enjoy yourself and the company of others. Hope you enjoyed yourself as much as we did, Brian! For more pics, click the pic below, or click here for pics from Tim’s camera.

The perseid meteor showers peak around this time of year… August 12th, by most reckonings, which you’ve now missed. We went out and watched it on the 11th after celebrating Brian Brakas’ (and of course Debbie Metzger’s even though she wasn’t there) birthday at Dave and Busters in Cincinnati. Caesar Creek state park near here actually had some viewing set up on their beach, but, since we didn’t look online, we ended up about a half mile away in a completely other-person-free wildlife sanctuary. Gorgeous night, and in the couple of hours we spent there we saw 18 or so great meteors between Ang and I.

Speaking of birthdays (you got the Dave and Busters’ bit in that last paragraph, right?) — Angela has some coverage of Kory’s birthday party over on her blog. I’d have more pictures up, but of course my camera died and Ang’s is a lot harder to carry around. I’ll let you know when I get around to replacing it.

Oh, right, and due to the huge number of tickets you can win playing the Monopoly game at Dave and Busters (thanks Brian and Michelle for pointing that out), we took home a HUGE white bear. Don’t tell Ang I told you, though.

So, my mom’s computer is dead, due to a dead primary hard drive. On top of that, while moving files from my laptop to an external drive because my laptop was filling up, I fried the external drive. D’oh. One of the chips started smouldering and shining bright red. That’s bad for a computer part, right? Right.

Icky-poo. So I’ve decided to bite the bullet and send the thing to a drive repair shop. I’m actually a BIT happy about it because I had ANOTHER hard drive die a few years ago that had stuff from 10 years earlier backed up on it, so I’m sending that out too, just to see what I can recover. Free estimates, that’s good, but if it comes back $1700 bucks or so, which is eminently possible, I may say bye-bye to my data.

Aackphbt. I MUST implement a proper backup mechanism. In fact, I WAS implementing one, but things are no good when your drive failures occur during/because of your backup routine.

Learn from my mistakes. Backup now! Follow Brian Schmidt’s example… you can get a decent computer online these days that cost like $300 and run faster than the main computer I’m running now, video card notwithstanding. Buy three… set up a redundant SAN… love life.
