The Blue Screen of Death

BSODPeople who are familiar with Windows® operating systems will recognize this “blue screen of death.” I have seen it from time to time when using both home and work computers that both use the Windows OS. What threw me was this one that popped up on – wait for it – the gas pump at a Lomita (CA) Mobil station. It pumped out $2.16 worth of regular gasoline when it did this. I had to move to another pump where I completed my fill-up.

When I checked the credit card charges later in the week, I saw that I got charged the $2.16 for the aborted sale. Weird.
