I was working along, minding my own business, when my system crashed (Windows 2000 Professional). It restarted right away but my Opera wouldnt start. I downloaded the new Opera and loaded it on top of the existing installation to no avail. The next step was to delete Opera and reload which worked fine until I looked at my Bookmarks (Favorites to you IE folks) which were now only the default Bookmarks.

I keep telling myself that everything is impermanent everything is impermanent everything is impermanent everything is impermanent everything is impermanent.

I don't feel any better.

All the wonderful links for this evening have evaporated. Now I have to rely on memory. I'm over 55 so I don't have any short term memory and I went through the 60s so there is no long term memory either. I guess I'll just have to do the best I can.
