Hello one and all. I have had an electronic altercation with my computer over the last month. Now that the dust is settled, I now have a new external hard drive that works, yet my data has gone through some inadvertent housecleaning.

Like a sloppy housecleaner, the guy who rescued my photos, music and stories from the grasp of collapsing building that was my old drive gathered my e-goods randomly to say the least. My fonts are fine, but Stevie Wonder (pre-electronica) didn’t find his way out. I have my photos, but no bookmarks.

Worst of all, I lost all my addresses.

Instead of turning this into a reminder to backup your data, which you would probably ignore anyway, I wanted to start up a contest. Here is how it goes:
