I used to have a freeware software to combine .txt files, but I haven't seen that freeware lately so I went to Google and found an article which is great, but the method in the article doesn't allow me to identify, by file name, which .txt files of the 884 are actually corrupt. Nonetheless, this is a well-written article and worth referring to in the future: https://www.wikihow.com/Merge-Text-(.Txt)-Files-in-Command-Prompt - How to Merge Text (.Txt) Files in Command Prompt.

Good Tip
I have a folder with 884 .txt files and I wanted to combine them into one. Because I have had external hard drive (EHD) issues with the EHD these files are stored on, I can't see the content of several files.

Two Things True at the Same Time
I am glad I live in North Liberty. I wish there was a MicroCenter closer than Chicagoland.
I would order one of these EHDs in a heartbeat... if it could be shipped to me.

Some EHD Stats
I wanted to convert 778 GB to TB so I could have a sum in the Free column. I entered 778 GB to TB in Google and the first result was https://convertermaniacs.com/directory/converter-maniacs-directory.html, which told me the answer (0.778 TB).

Some EHD Stats
I determined a smart thing for me to do would be to move all of the files on my F: EHD to my E: EHD. I have been pecking away at this project for several weeks. I now can report I see light at the end of the tunnel. The first screenshot shows the stats for my 3 primary EHDs; the second screenshot shows that there were 54,566 files on the F: EHD earlier today. I hope that this migration is completed today.

EHD - 12 v 14 for the same price?!?
I can pay $239.99 for a 12 TB EHD ----or---- I can pay $239.99 for a 14 TB EHD.

I Really Like This Tune
I am going to end my writing of blog posts with this post, which means for 2021, I will have 621 posts. By the numbers, it makes this year be ranked 7th out of 14 years I have been writing posts on this blog.
- 2018 (1857)
- 2019 (1650)
- 2017 (1507)
- 2016 (1364)
- 2020 (742)
- 2014 (636)
- 2021 (621)
- 2015 (567)
- 2013 (433)
- 2009 (270)
- 2012 (259)
- 2008 (209)
- 2011 (140)
- 2010 (121)
I feel like if I didn't make today be a final cut, I would create 20 "fluff" posts - 10 today, 10 tomorrow - in an effort to make this year's total be 640, thus moving 2021 to 6th place, which would be really meaningless because there is no way I can write 104 posts in 2 days to have 745 posts for the year and boosting 2021 to 5th place. Instead, I'll accept the reality of not writing as many posts in 2021 as I did in 2014, 2014, 2020, 2016, 2017, 2019, & 2018. Speaking of 2018, how in the hell did I write 1237 more posts than I did in 2021?!? That's a very high standard of writing 155 posts / month, whereas in 2021, I wrote 52 posts / month.
There were a lot of great tunes that went into my ears in 2021. This morning, I realized that the tune "Ruthless" by Nonpoint may not be the "best" song of 2021, but it does represent the way I would describe 2021. It was a ruthless year of highs and lows. Obviously, yes, the COVID-19 pandemic is at the forefront of my mind and dictated the way I live. For example, COVID-19 dictated the following:
- how many Masses I attended at Saint Thomas More
- not nearly as many as I did pre-COVID-19
- how many concerts I attended
- Shinedown - August
- Knotfest - September
- ZZ Top - October
- Kansas - November
- how many movies I saw in the theater
- Spider-Man: No Way Home - December 28
My sincere hope is that 2022 results in going to Mass at Saint Thomas More every week, going to more than 4 concerts, and definitely seeing more than 1 movie in the theater!
