here's to hardware failure & Irony

I'd like to give a thank you to Irony. Irony, you really got me good this time!

.. last night, I said to myself before I went to sleep;
"eb, you should backup that new disc image ASAP!, you never know when it could 'crap-out'!".

And, well, I awoke today to find the drive clanking and choking on it's own existence!!!

So, to you Irony, I raise my glass, I will never underestimate you ever again!
