From: L & K Olson <kolson@mbnet.mb.ca> Subject: If they wrote error messages in haiku ... Yesterday it worked Today it is not working Windows is like that - - wind catches lily scatt'ring petals to the wind: segmentation fault - - Three things are certain: Death, taxes, and lost data. Guess which has occurred. - - A file that big? It might be very useful. But now it is gone. - - Windows NT crashed. I am the Blue Screen of Death. No one hears your screams. - - Errors have occurred. We won't tell you where or why. Lazy programmers. - - Seeing my great fault Through darkening blue windows I begin again - - The code was willing, It considered your request, But the chips were weak. - - Printer not ready. Could be a fatal error. Have a pen handy? - - Server's poor response Not quick enough for browser. Timed out, plum blossom. - - Chaos reigns within. Reflect, repent, and reboot. Order shall return. - - Login incorrect. Only perfect spellers may enter this system. - - This site has been moved. We'd tell you where, but then we'd have to delete you. - - ABORTED effort: Close all that you have. You ask way too much. - - First snow, then silence. This thousand dollar screen dies so beautifully. - - With searching comes loss and the presence of absence: "My Novel" not found. - - The Tao that is seen Is not the true Tao, until You bring fresh toner. - - The Web site you seek cannot be located but endless others exist - - Stay the patient course Of little worth is your ire The network is down - - A crash reduces your expensive computer to a simple stone. - - There is a chasm of carbon and silicon the software can't bridge - - To have no errors Would be life without meaning No struggle, no joy - - You step in the stream, but the water has moved on. This page is not here. - - No keyboard present Hit F1 to continue Zen engineering? - - Hal, open the file Hal, open the damn file, Hal open it, please Hal - - 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. - - The ten thousand things How long do any persist? Netscape, too, has gone. - - Rather than a beep Or a rude error message, These words: "File not found." - - Serious error. All shortcuts have disappeared Screen. Mind. Both are blank.
