This was the one.  I guess I forgot to umount my backup NAS before
shutting it down.  Obviously, since the machine is off right now, it
wasn't responding.  I did a umount -f on it and now it works again. 

I thought I used df since my last update but wasn't sure.  I thought
maybe a update broke a symlink or something, which is why I re-emerged
several packages.  Didn't occur to me to check the NAS mount point. 

Thanks to all.  It's working again.  I need to buy more drives again
tho.  Getting close to 90% on some and over 90% on backup NAS.  :/
