A new take on IT

My friend (and top notch IC person!) Anita Patel sent me an email explaining how the Japanese have replaced those annoying systems error messages with Haiku poetry messages. Is this true?? Whether it is or not, the messages are brilliant! Here are some examples:

Your file was so big.

It might be very useful.

But now it is gone.

Chaos reigns within.

Reflect, repent and reboot.

Order shall return.

Yesterday it worked.

Today it is not working.

Windows is like that.

A crash reduces

Your expensive computer

To a simple stone.

Three things are certain:

Death, taxes and lost data.

Guess which has occurred.

Serious error.

All shortcuts have disappeared.

Screen. Mind. Both are blank.

So, oh innovative comms colleagues with mighty writing powers, anyone fancy suggesting any more? IT or anything else IC related?

PS Apparently someone's written a 250,000 word fake of the new Harry Potter novel and posted it on line.  Now that's dedication!
