Tuesday while working on a score for a friends movie the hard drive in my MacBook Pro finally bit the biscuit after 8 years of hard use.
Lost all the files because I was stupid and didn't back them up.

Long story longer ... I just dropped almost 2 grand at the Apple Store
That severely bites into my hat budget

Oh yeah ... Wearing a Borsalino

Did you say "score...?" And its not a hat...? Maybe you can increase your "hat budget" by selling some of those old hats... ;)

When my iMac hard drive started to show signs of failure, I started to make backups. It then failed and I restored everything on a new hard drive. Later Apple recalled those hard drives because they were defective.
I still do backups.

This type of thread has worked well in other places, and I think would be a nice addition here. I'll kick things off.

I always back up and use Time Machine to the external ... but I was just in the middle of this score and figured I would just back up when I was finished
the computer really showed no signs of $#!tting the bed on me ... it was almost 8 years old though ... with 8 years of very heavy use and travel .. so I'm not completely surprised

no big deal really ... I have all super important stuff backed up and those tracks for the score I will just redo on this computer and make them better than they were

all is good

Merry Friday folks.

Today's hat also was in the box I received from Rick yesterday. An old vented Stetson Bantam. Really, really, really, really neato (Rick is my hero)!

Happy weekend eve, everyone.


awesome Matt

that thing is really beautiful and looks great on you ... Rick has some gems indeed

That's a killer Bantam, Matt. Looks like Rick's boxes should be coveted.
And once again, Dave, I almost grabbed my CD, but opted instead for this 3X OR. Perhaps I'll wear the CD sitting in the cold rain and snow at Great American Ballpark this evening. THey're calling for a chilly, wet First Friday night game in Cincy. I'll have to bundle up!

Haha! I'm so glad you like it and it looks right at home on you!

Thanks Rick & Ant.
It is definitely the blackest non-homburg, soft-felt that I have. So it has admirably filled a void in my collection. Just PERFECT!!!!!

Gems indeed!

Be well & have fun.

Now if you were to ask what hat I will be wearing at 7:15 pm Left Coast time, you can be sure it will be that Borden for Jay Lord that got the Giants 12 runs yesterday. Yes, baseball fans can be superstitious. And it's only weird if it doesn't work. Fruno jokingly mentiobed Elsie the Cow from the old Borden Dairy ads so I was thinking about calling the hat Elsie, but the way the 'Ants moidered the Dodgers I think she has to be Lizzie.
Have a great day!
