Just making sure that I correctly understood your request...
>Give me backup tips like I just lost all my data and you want to rub it in
You mean like the time I arrived on a client site to find that a second HDD on the Sun Enterprise Server Solaris box in the RAID 5 Array had failed, yet they chose to run the machine in that degraded state w/o calling me to simply plugin a hotswap drive and rebuild the array before the second drive failed?
Or maybe when I told them, no problem, I'll just rebuild a fresh array from scratch, and then just run a full restore from the previous night's DLT tape?
Or perhaps when I saw that look in their eyes and they admitted that they hadn't been swapping tapes each night for about three or four months?
Their CFO looked at me as if everything was still going to be okay (Coz I'm a fucking Rock God) and said: "Well, we've never had a problem before." to which I did my best to respond without letting loose a condescending gufaw....
I've mentioned various missing movies, such as Dogma. (Which is apparently being held back by the Weinsteins.)
There's another one - a film that we voted as having the best (and funniest) sex scene ever filmed - The Tall Guy. It's not available. And what other movie contains a musical version of "The Elephant Man" with tunes such as 'Packing His Trunk To Go"?
This is another data point in my evolving belief that copyright protection ought not to be afforded to works that are not openly available under fair and reasonable terms and prices.
I think the funniest sex scene in the history of film is contained in the film, "Bad Words", where Jason Batemen and Kathryn Hahn are going at it in the hotel's broom closet...
