Northstar Woe is Me

So I've got BASIC loaded and I'm doing a CATALOG of a disk
from Doug Coward and lots of garbage starts spewing out of the
terminal and now the machine won't boot again. Everything is
grounded properly and I don't usually have static problems in
the basement (too humid) so I'm assuming something chose that
particular moment to die.

*sigh* Back to the test bench again! I've fixed this thing
now twice already! Guess once more won't hurt. I go upstairs
and tell my wife my tale of woe and she responds that it was
impressive that I fixed it the first two times.

*sigh* Still it depresses me. Oh well.
