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. -------------------------------------------- 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. ------------------------------------------- Stay the patient course. Of little worth is your ire. The network is down. -------------------------------------------- A crash reduces Your expensive computer To a simple stone. -------------------------------------------- Three things are certain: Death, taxes and lost data. Guess which has occurred. -------------------------------------------- You step in the stream, But the water has moved on. This page is not here. -------------------------------------------- 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. _______________________________________________ gnhlug-discuss mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss
