KABLAM!

Well, it happened again. I wrote a long post in the client, and when I reconnected to the internet, Explorer caused a general protection fault and shut down. And, of course, the client went away. Is it possible to save content from the client, and then re-enter it after a crash? I can't figure it out. Even stranger, the connection I got was at 115000bps! I've never gotten a connection that fast. I think maybe the machine just couldn't handle it. I must have some setting that needs to be changed. Apparently, there are disadvantages to having a really good modem. Especially when your computer is a Frankenclone. Poor Sluggo. He's demented, and now he's outclassed by one of his parts.

since your entries tend to be longer and more literary, were I you I would just start composing them in word. Auto-save could save you.

Man, I am really interested to read these lost entries. No telling what they contained.

But who knows; it could be relieving to lose your entries, like a Navajo sand painting destroyed at its completion. Half the things I write here I write just to write them, not so that they will be written.

That was either really pompous, or naively insightful. I think.

I've been burned...

... too many times by the client. What I do now it type it in notepad, and then cut and paste it in as an intermediate step... 3 times was too much for me!
