So MANY writers claim they know what they’re talking about (the same with end losers). What happens isn’t mechanical anymore. Windows makes registry links and hardware profiles when removable media is added. Your friend who makes that stupid saying has never gotten burnt when suddenly windows WON’T DETECT OR ACCESS YOUR MEDIA. This will happen when removable media is yanked out one too many times and is ‘remarked’ out in the registry. You end up having a few options: 1) dig through your registry and find where it got remarked out and delete that key (good luck with that) 2) Copy from that media onto a different media (usually USB drives) and use that one or 3) reformat your hard drive. I’m sure his reply will be “Well, that NEVER happened to me!” My reply is the same as it’s been the 20 years I’ve been doing tech support - have it happen to you once (Murphy’s Law being what it is it’ll happen at the WORST possible time) YOU’LL NEVER DO IT AGAIN.

Be smart about your system. That little removal tool is there for a reason. Like many things dealing with computers, there are best practices for a reason. Use them all the time and you seldom have to worry about Mr. Murphy.

Memories of riding on the milk man's wagon when they used them during WW2 because of gasoline rationing. Was cool for the milk man as the horse would walk down the street a ways as the milkman was making deliveries. It's also how I learned to "hit the ground running" for real. After rationing ended they went back to trucks and we were not allowed to ride in them.

Given, his first name means “God is salvation" and his family name is French for "the beef." So, he is really named "Holy Cow," which makes me suspect he is not from this planet, and certainly not from Guildford.
