Check this out!
Apparently our external hard drive with all our important stuff on it decided to switch from NFTS to RAW file system, making it unreadable. Why and how did it do this? All I was doing was renaming some files! So much for trying to be organized!
Anyway, I am now trying to recover 2TBs of important and personal data that was supposed to be relatively safe. We only bought the Western Digital drive 6 months or so ago. In fact, we bought TWO! One to back up the other one. Although we never effectively made that happen, as we had more than 2TBs of data to start with. But it was the plan! Who knew that we would get screwed so soon after the purchase! IF I can recover the data (still an IF) then it is likely to take days and once I have it back, the file names may all be gobbledigook and have to be individually renamed. 184,000 files… I hope I won’t have to. The BMS backups on the drive were outdated at least.
This weekend I am going to try and paint the front door “Anakin’s bloody stumps” red. I’m going to try and rake the leaves. Yeah, yeah… I know Yoda says there is no try, but screw that guy! Honestly, you can’t see any grass in our front and backyard right now! I’m going to try and get Tuesday’s BMS strip done (yeah, we’re going to shift from Monday to a Tuesday update for a while). On a more positive note, reader Phil C. sent us this photo from Virginia Comic Con below. He also made another kick ass diorama from the Ralph MacQuarrie painting that inspired our previous Hoth website banner. Great job, Phil! Keep ’em coming!
This is where she decides she’d rather have kissed the Wookiee.
For a minute there I thought he was trying to unhook her bra, but there is no underwear in space, so that was a no go.
As for the pics he is sending to Luke, I think Leia would approve if it got her more attention.
Pics or it didn’t happen.
I remember feeling indignant on Luke’s behalf back in 1980 – Han didn’t even want to rescue her! My first exposure to the bad-boys-get-the-girl phenomenon.
Thanks for posting the pics! I have another of you and Leanne discussing the relative durability of various inks on plastic coated paper, if you want it. Dioramas will be difficult when Return of the Jedi comes around. I didn’t get any of those toys – I was too old for it by then. 🙁
Good luck with the tech issues!
Kissing is so much easier when you don’t have a nose.
Also, I’m terribly sorry to hear about your computer woes. I hope you can recover all the important stuff!
Both awkward left handers, seems all the creative folk are.
Good luck with the IT.
Luke became a left hander, you know. 🙂
Cool! I’m an awkward left-hander too!
I am too! We’re all a bunch of mutants.
I feel LEFT out! XD
Is Han sending them via Facebook? If so, I would love to see those pictures…oh, wait. I have already seen them.
Hey, congrats, Hannahs! You pulled through and got the strip out today. Thanks for another great strip. 🙂
@comic description text: my law firm uses wd externals all the time, and i’ve never heard of a problem with that. in fact, i’ve never heard of that problem at all. are you *sure* you didn’t reformat them accidently?
Great strip – love how it perfectly echoes the original still.
Glad you had fun at the con – just saw Leanne’s awesome ‘Waldorf and Stadler as Judges’ commission- amazing 🙂
At first i thought he was fiddling with some panel behind her, showing no greater interest x3
Regarding the hard drive issues, you may have had a hard drive crash. Disks show up as RAW when Windows doesn’t know what to do with them or there is an error reading them. Following the steps in the link below may help fix it at least long enough for you to get your data off.

Good luck!
Love Leanne’s Batman shirt. That’s awesome.
Wish you guys could be at the Austin Comic Con this weekend!
Maybe next year. I’m working with Brian Brinlee on a comic project we will most likely Debut in Texas next year.
@hansolo: This is what happens when you desert the hoth evac, Luke

@vader: why am i enraged at this?
Little known fact is that the panel behind Leia swings back and is actually a clever disguised bed…..
