Starbucks fans, I do NOT recommend the Gingerbread Latte. Tried one yesterday, and it did not taste good. (In my hubris, I got a tall, confident that I would like it. Next time I try something new, I will get a short.) On the other hand, I’ve never tried real gingerbread before, so I’ve never developed a taste for it.

Helped fix DZFE’s computer today; installed a new modem. What a trial. I’ve found that in all my experiences installing hardware, internal modems on Win95 systems are the most troublesome. Plugging them into the motherboard PCI slot is easy, but when it comes time to install the drivers and assign IRQ and port settings, the tribulation is well nigh unbearable. But I got it done, praise God.
