YOU KNOW YOU ARE LIVING IN 2006 when...

1. You accidentally enter your PIN on the microwave.

2. You haven't played solitaire with real cards in years.

3. You have a list of 15 phone numbers to reach your family of three.

4. You e-mail the person who works at the desk next to you.

5. Your reason for not staying in touch with friends and family is that they don't have e-mail addresses.

6. You pull up in your own driveway and use your cell phone to see if anyone is home to help you carry in the groceries.

7. Every commercial on television has a web site at the bottom of the screen.

8. Leaving the house without your cell phone, which you didn't even have the first 20 or 30 (or 60) years of your life, is now a cause for panic and you turn around to go and get it.

10. You get up in the morning and go on line before getting your coffee.

11. You start tilting your head sideways to smile. : )

12. You're reading this and nodding and laughing.

13. Even worse, you know exactly to whom you are going to forward this message.

14. You are too busy to notice there was no item 9 on this list.

15. You actually scrolled back up to check that there wasn't an item 9 on this list.



yay peace devil

In Japan, they have replaced the impersonal and unhelpful Microsoft error messages with Haiku poetry messages. Haiku poetry has strict construction rules - each poem has only 17 syllables: 5 syllables in the first line, 7 in the second line, and 5 in the third. They are used to communicate a timeless message, often achieving a wistful, yearning, and powerful insight through extreme brevity.

The Website you seek
Cannot be located, but
Countless more exist
*****

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.
*****

Yesterday it worked.
Today it is not working.
Windows is like that.
*****

Your file was too 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 are seeking
Must now be retyped.
*****

Serious error.
All shortcuts have disappeared.
Screen. Mind. Both are blank.
