at least time machine saves its progress during backups so even if i have to spend hte next 8 hours transferring data 20 minutes at a time between hard restarts, i will be able to save the data. and theyve gussied up safe mode since i last used it - im able to use bluetooth poo poo and browse the internet even. last time i did this, safe mode turned your computer into a sealed box.

your efforts to move the rock cause you to explosively herniate a disc in your back. you go into shock and die. your score is 1353 out of a possible 17 million.

if this external boot bugs out on me in the next hour or so i guess thatll narrow it down to some pernicious software thing or the RAM being hosed. if it doesnt i guess i just have to nuke and pave the internal and do a restore with superduper????

cursory google search suggests a port that is bad but not dead could produce similar symptoms, have you tried different ports/cables

yknow i did have a bad battery last year that swelled up and did some damage to the hard drive mount so thats not unlikely.

The one thing I think I can knock Tolkein for is that there is zero passion in his characters. At their most heated they might give a rousing speech but beyond that they might as well be one of those stock Cold War movie characters whose turn-ons are: God, Apple pie, saluting the flag.
