ROFLMAO!

I'm not laughing at you Craig, I'm laughing at myself. You see, I had quite forgotten that I did this not once, but twice within a one month period a couple years back.

I got lucky the first time and managed to get it shut down before it made a big mess or wrecked my coffee maker. But the second time, I didn't get so lucky.

I feel your pain!

I hope your day improved from there...
