The weirdest thing happened to my mid-2008 Intel iMac. Sometime Sunday evening 
(apparently), the computer switched startup drives (from the internal drive to 
an external drive) without my doing anything (that I know of). I didn't think 
this was possible. I noticed something was wrong because a bunch of photos I 
had imported into iPhoto that day were suddenly missing. I thought it was a 
iPhoto problem, and I didn't think to check which drive was in use. So I spent 
a few hours researching the subject of disappearing photos in iPhoto, on the 
Web (it's a real phenomenon). This afternoon I booted into the external drive 
to check it out (but actually I had been on it since Sunday!). Then I re-booted 
back to the internal drive and unexpectedly discovered my missing photos, where 
they had been all along! So my question is: has anybody ever heard of a Mac 
re-booting itself from an alternate boot volume? (or am I going crazy?)
