Well, yesterday I got a little bit closer to being fully recovered... (hard drive fiasco) I did lose a great majority of my folk music (which I had acquired free at amazon.com.) However, joy and praise to mac, they allowed me a one time redownload of all of my purchased music with an admonish to backup from there on in. Yessum! I found this FANTASTIC program (for 13 bucks) called iPod Access which allows me to backup directly from my iPod to an external HD (or anywhere) so I don't have to have all my music on my HD or in iTunes for that matter. I even learned how to keep an iPod from losing all it's songs when connected to an iTunes program. (Because you have to connect the iPod to iTunes before you can set up the MANUAL only settings... blech!) I think it is the CTRL-OPTION key combo but I'm not sure, I would have to read the directions again.

Yesterday afternoon I went to see In Good Company with my sweety. It was a great movie, I recommend it for all to see. It was chock full of family values, (not the kind Bush pushes but the authentic kind) business ethics, personal development issues, etc. It was fantastic. I will not ruin the ending, but it wasn't formulaic. I left the movie chattering away because it brought up a lot of points that I am studying in one of my classes (a business admin class.) It reminded me a little of Jerry Maguire, how Cruise has that epiphany at the beginning of the movie about how his business SHOULD be run. This is a feel-good movie that has some tongue in cheek (and a serious) look at mega corporations and how they might not be the wave of the future... Just a hint: cross-marketing promotions.

Ciao - I'm off to eat breakfast!
