stolen geek humor

stolen directly from: Slacksonville (Xkot's new group venture)

There was once a young man who, in his youth, professed a desire to become a "great" writer. When asked to define "great" he said, "I want to write stuff that the whole world will read, stuff that people will react to on a truly emotional level, stuff that will make them scream, cry, wail, howl in pain, desperation, and anger!"

He now works for Microsoft writing error messages.

Sure she is! ...and I'm whining about being on vacation with a P-120 laptop that runs Linux just fine! ...only I couldn't find that HDD so I'm stuck running Win95! Double Phooey!
