Morning kiddies! Got my new power supply yesterday, system back up and running. BUT...it seems that one of my SATA drives has a problem. I can boot from both, so that is good. But I keep getting a Critical RAID 1 error, and when the system trys to duplicate the drive, it gets about halfway through and then stops, forcing a reboot. This is my first SATA RAID system, and it will probably be my last if I continue to have these problems.

Suzanne, the blonde, runs crying into the office. "What's wrong?" gasps her best friend Gail. "It's my boyfriend." gushes Suzanne. "He was working on the engine under the hood of his car when the lid came down and cut off a finger!" "My god", shrieks Gail. "Did it amputate his WHOLE finger!?" "No thank goodness" sniffs Suzanne. "But it was the one just next to it!"

Typical French responce. Instead of sending in more troops and putting down the insurgents, they high tail it and run.

Depends how old your boy is. If he is old enough to understand, then you gotta wait, unless you let him open something early too!

I tell ya, each cat is different when it comes to giving meds. One of our cats, Robbie (may he rest in peace) would just lay back in your arms and let you give him meds. Of our current pets, Snickers isn't to bad. She doesn't bite, just hard to hold. Now Penny, she is the cat mentioned in the above post. She will try to shred you, even for just trying to trim her rear claws. I dread the day that cat gets sick and needs pills!
