I received the following from a friend of mine. These will be of great interest to many AWADers, given the number who live by computers.
Yesterday it worked.
Today it is not working.
Windows is like that.
Your file was so big.
It might be very useful.
But now it is gone.
The website you seek
Cannot be located, but
Countless more exist.
You step in the stream,
But the water has moved on.
This page is not here.
Chaos reigns within.
Reflect, repent, and reboot.
Order shall return.
Program aborting:
Close all that you have worked on.
You ask far too much.
Windows NT crashed.
I am the Blue Screen of Death.
No one hears your screams.
First snow, then silence.
This thousand dollar screen dies
So beautifully.
Three things are certain:
Death, taxes and lost data.
Guess which has occurred.
Out of memory.
We wish to hold the whole sky
But we never will.
Having been erased,
The document you're seeking
Must now be retyped.
Serious error.
All shortcuts have disappeared.
Screen. Mind. Both are blank.
