madbakerBugger. I killed the computer again.
I have to figure out how I'm doing it, and stop it!
I have a couple of .dll files to try and get - maybe that will fix the problem. We'll see if I can download them from work.
The worst part is that neither the wife nor I had printed out our class documentation for this weekend yet. Aaargh!
In less annoying news, I made some elderberry syrup last night. It was supposed to be jam, but it never set. The first time I tried boiling it until setting, I got elderberry concrete.
I may have to break down and use commercial pectin. I usually don't, as I prefer boiling down to a more intense flavor. Quality over quantity and all that.
The most effective way to separate elderberries from their tiny little delicate stems: tease them.
(pointing a finger) "Hah hah! No-one knows what to do with you!"
(...or run a fork through them.)
