Because boats. That’s why.

I have a 2nd-generation Drobo in the house. Once per week, we have a planned power outage (yes, really, follow along) for about 10 hours. House server and media libraries all get shut down cleanly and powered off before power is cut to the house. Not a big deal, right?
Power it all back up 10 hours later and Drobo occasionally says, “Hey, you’re missing a disk… replace the one with the red light.”
Occasionally.
So, I reseat the drive… then wait three days for the array to rebuild.
Three. Days.
Yep, first world problems.
It’ll only get worse as I upgrade those disks to 3 or 4TB capacities.

The entire album is awesome – well, with the exception of one or two tracks in Volume 2.
However, seeing that the American Independence Day is just around the corner, Freberg’s Declaration of Independence seems apropos.

My first thought was: that hitch needs to be adjusted to get that thing to ride level.
Then I realized: the back of that teardrop can’t bottom-out on a bump if it’s only rolling at 8MPH.
Random thoughts…
I don’t know what’s more disturbing:
- That we find ourselves seriously considering buying a house again–only nine months after we sold the last one.
- Or that because I’m so unfamiliar with the process, I actually googled “how to buy a house”
- Or that there are 654,000,000 pages out there actually describing how to do so.
