My external hard drive is suddenly giving me this error message:



I was using it this morning and there were no warning signs of impending doom.  Any suggestions?

You can still recover the data?

What does that cost?

About the same as a sponsorship to play in the World Series of Poker.

Managed to find a back door in through disk management.  Still wonky, though, so will be backing up to the other hard drive and buying a new one.

tried to pay for some shtein on eBay with PayPal and it was all jacked up.  I'm not a goddamn programmer but I know how to log on to sites and keep my passwords and shtein straight.  Something went bad. 

So I call.

Got Ann, with the Indian accent.

She was very good, but I had to ask her to repeat herself a couple times, and to habla mas despacio. 

I fairly fell in love with her. 

Got my shtein all straight.

Thanks, "Ann," I love you.

PayPal's business model currently seems to be automating systems that lock you out of your account so you can't access any money you have in there.

I think the people who run my cell phone service are crooks.  Am considering rejecting the platform entirely.
