Distraction

Here’s a little something to make you think that I’m actually here writing my blog. Enjoy …

My pirate name is:
Mad Harry Rackham
Every pirate is a little bit crazy. You, though, are more than just a little bit. You have the good fortune of having a good name, since Rackham (pronounced RACKem, not rack-ham) is one of the coolest sounding surnames for a pirate. Arr!

The Dog Ate My Blog

I was trying to think of some excuses for not blogging in so long. I thought of a few:

  • It could be that there’s just not that much going on right now, but it isn’t.
  • It could be that Mel had a baby and it’s been taking all of our attention, but it isn’t.
  • It could be that I recently accepted a position with Microsoft and I’m very busy developing yet another version of Windows, but it isn’t.
  • It could be that I was in a terrible accident and only recently regained consciousness, but it isn’t.
  • It could be that the new Playstation 3 is too addictive to break away from … that’s probably it.

Thanks for hanging around anyway. I’ll be back soon.

If Windows was Japanese?

I’m not much for passing on spam, but my mother in law sent me this and its actually very funny. These are Haiku messages that could easily replace Windows Error Messages.

  • The web site you are seeking 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 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.
