Yesterday’s haiku left a lot to be desired in the humor department. That’s just how Microsoft makes me feel sometimes. I had one big project that I needed to finish, and my computer decided that it wouldn’t open the Excel file that was necessary for that one project. It made me grumpy. Today is new…
