BOO HOOZ

I had been working on the Expanded Legends in Woods, Stories of the Totems (Legends) (the original recently gone out of print). It had been an on again, off again work, especially since I'd become a DJ of my son's new online radio ThunderCloud Radio ( http://www.thundercloudradio.com/ ).

But, recently, I had felt quite good that infact I was making progress! At this time I had been working on the "Preface" of the book, and describing how the original "Legends" came to be, and working through the process of creating that book, and background of the affinity that I feel with Totem Poles.

It had been a couple of days since I had been able to work on the manuscript, and decided to open it up and work for a little bit, then I found out:

THERE WAS A VIRUS ON THAT FILE

Meaning that I could NOT open it up. No, there wasn't a copy. And, No, I hadn't printed it out.

I still have the original 2 pages of handwritten start for the preface. But, I had gotten to about 14 pages!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You know, those in the past who wrote in longhand, and those who used a typewriter NEVER had to worry about a Virus on their work.

Just had to let out a Rant into Cyber Space.... Curse You whoever you are in Cyber Space for the Virus on my manuscript!!!!
