Pancake Syrup Mdb
i am walking in humid Manhattan with a hidden towel in my backpack. i manage to survive the -60 F drop in temperature and start pushing off sheets of moisture with my hotel contraband. i’m here to meet a key member of our analytical team, a KwazyCaldrontic86 with a tendency to dance the flamenco when aroused. He’s summoned me from across the country as i was the author of PancakeSyrup.mdb — what has proven to be a game-changing tool for the agency.
PancakeSyrup.mdb allowed you to input data into it and it would make a mess of it all in real time instead of manually doing it in Excel each morning.
