Friends, The latest news: Even though my computer access has been restored I am not yet connected to the Jerseydjs.com site in the way that will allow me to resume my internet radio shows. Once I get reconnected I will be back in effect. I will be sure to inform you once that happens. In the meantime you can still check out all of the other shows on Jerseydjs.com. The roster of DJs is a real treat for the ears! On a somber note, I was finally able to determine that many of the lost files are irretrievable and are gone forever. Most people would be seriously heartbroken by such news, and for a moment I was one of those people. I then compared the occasion to that of having other possessions “taken” from me, such as when my house was broken into several times during my tenure in England. I also thought about the time when I mailed some records to my APO address from my Chicago address and half of them mysteriously disappeared when the mail was damaged. During these two times (and several others) I had to simply recover/renew what I could, forget about my permanent losses, and move on. Once again I am forced to repeat that pattern of behavior. I was only able to recover a handful of files, so now I must renew what I can. Next, I must cut my permanent losses. I have already done that so the final step is for me to move on with life. In short, the loss of files was a mere inconvenience to me since I do have to start things from scratch. However, with Thanksgiving right around the corner I can say that I still have more than most people – the list of blessings can get lengthy if I really let it! One final note: just know that with the insights I just gave, the internet radio shows will be even better than before!
