Today's Dilemma

Today I was looking for an old video clip that I posted quite some time ago. I don't even remember the name of the clip, never mind when I posted it. It could have been a couple of years ago, but it was likely more than five or six years ago.

I never found the clip but what I did find was a shocking amount of old video clips that no longer exist. There have to be at least a couple of dozen or more that have been vaporized. All that's left is the internet equivalent of a test pattern. Here's just one example...


This is very disappointing. Now my barely intelligible posts are even more nonsensical. Is it possible that I've wasted untold minutes of my life for no good reason (just speaking strictly in terms of this blog)?

What do I do about this? Do I ignore them and hope the problem resolves itself (my usual tactic)? Do I go through all these old posts and try to find new videos (no way)? Do I go back and delete all of these old posts (even this option seems like a lot of effort)?

I guess I'll stick with my usual tactic and ignore them. It seems to have worked pretty well for me so far. But man, I wish I could find that old clip.
