In hindsight, you guys would lose a US contact for kicks. Maybe I should stay, you know, for the good of the SSDB.

(Vancouver does look nice, though.)

[Lorrie]

Good point.

And Vancouver is great. I'm from there. It rained every single day for 26 years, so I left.

I'm going to need your help in a couple of weeks if possible. Doesn't look like adidas Canada is getting anything new this year.

[Tifoso]

Hit me up.

Maybe you would like to move to Finland?

This (I've been told) is perfectly normal. I took this picture like an hour ago.





I called to emergency number and they told me that he just likes to go jogging like that no matter how cold it is.
Each to their own I guess. At least he is not going to shoot any kids in that costume.

[Vortec]

Haha they know him allready.

[ez-1]

Yep...
I know his name too but you have to promise not to tell anyone - he is Santa Claus. Shaves off the beard after X-mas and runs around half naked to keep in shape.

Cats just knocked an external hard drive off. Now it won't work. Movies, music, tv shows, pictures all fleck in gone....Have tried plugging it into another ext point and still nothing....Nearly a TB gone.....

Don't know which USB drive you got mate but you might wanna try to open the box and try to connect it directly to your computer with one of these:

[Fieldsy1971]

Done all that mate. Just wont be recognised. And im not paying upwards of a ton for retrieval. ....

[ez-1]

Sorry to hear that mate. Do you have a desktop machine? If you do you could try to hook it up to it and see if you have better luck.

[Fieldsy1971]

Tried it....Just whirs and clicks repeatedly.......If only I knew how to get all the data off it I'd be laughing.......

[ez-1]

One more trick that you can try. But I would say that this is somewhat the last effort as it might damage the HDD even more.
Put it in a a fridge for over night or so that it is really cold. If there is some bearings that are not round anymore that should make them a bit smaller and make it rotate again.
Just keep it there for long enough so that it really get thoroughly cold. Might be a good idea to put it in a bag of some sort to prevent moisture.

[Poor Sod]

F***ing resellers...

[vox]

Don't worry PS, SnS will get them too I've been told. Price will probably be closer to resellers than Size though

[Poor Sod]

Aha. So much for the infamous Size? exclusives...
