This looks bad...

Just as I was about to click 'save' after completing a full report on the Sunstate Hobie Bass Bash last night the cursor froze momentarily and then the dreaded blue screen 'o death appeared, giving me some uncomprehensible error message that sounded scary. It turned out to be every bit as scary as the message suggested. The computer was unable to reboot and after digging around in the bios I discovered that the hard drive was totally and utterly corrupted. Repairing it is going to be tricky, if not impossible and there's every chance I've lost every piece of data that was stored on it. Fortunately I do back up most of my data regularly, although I did lose the full report and now I have to rewrite it again. Thankfully I uploaded the images first, so they are stored in the database, so I didn't lose any of those.

Currently I'm typing this from an Internet cafe and won't get much chance to do any updates until this notebook is repaired. When I do come back online, however, I will have some interesting news to report, followed by some faily significant changes to both the layout and content of the Yakabout website.
