I didn't really sit down to fix it till Sunday night around 10 p.m., but the new hard drive is in and I reloaded everything with my backup files. All-in-all, it took about 4 hours to restore. This was the quickest I'd ever gotten a computer back up and running.OrangeNeckInNYnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3786818.post-42502931290191744752009-07-18T19:12:37.018-05:002009-07-18T19:12:37.018-05:00It was great to see the visual to accompany the au...It was great to see the visual to accompany the audio on that storm. <br /><br />The big sky effect when away form the city really makes the big difference in depth of nature, doesn't it?

I grew up with it, and when I left here, missed it tremendously. The squeaking isn't the flywheel, but the guides, and all the grease in the world won't offset being trampled-and other more personal things- on a daily basis by horses, deer, the occasional longhorn,bobcats, jackrabbits, cottontails, snakes, spiders, coons, and the odd ferret or two.<br />Elsewhere PhDAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3786818.post-87120387075179846402009-07-17T19:26:26.604-05:002009-07-17T19:26:26.604-05:00As Kris said, call the pumpjack owner- No way that...As Kris said, call the pumpjack owner- No way that thing should be squeaking!
