I have had dozens of nice emails and things from people regarding my recent computer tragedy, I really appreciate all the generosity and support, thanks.

I am close to recovery I suppose, I do have tons of work to make up but I am optimistic about it. I did get a new laptop, so I am not completely out of touch with the world – but of course it put a nice dent in my finances. And because I am starting from scratch, the most important things I have had to do is re-configure, everything. Fonts must be installed,folders must be created and organized as well as all music uploaded and rated accordingly, cause you know, a hierarchical music system is much more important than my educational goals. Bookmarks shall be set, accounts and passwords input and saved, calibration and application installs – and now some toying with complex things I don't really understand, like MySQL and PHP, Wiki wiki wack. I'll be here for a few days.
