Personally, I love computers. I also love making fun
of them. Here are 3 computer quickies...

"Dead Computer"

A friend of mine works in a busy office where a
computer going down causes quite an inconvenience.
Recently one of the computers not only crashed, it
made a noise that sounded like a heart monitor.

"This computer has flat-lined!" a co-worker called out
with mock horror. "Does anyone here know how to
do mouse-to-mouse?"

"Roses...."

I stopped at a florist shop after work to pick up
roses for my wife. As the clerk was putting the
finishing touches on the bouquet, a young man
burst through the door, breathlessly requesting
a dozen red roses.

"I'm sorry," the clerk said. "This man just ordered
our last bunch."

The desperate customer turned to me and begged,
"May I please have those roses?"

"What happened?" I asked. "Did you forget your
wedding anniversary or something?"

"It's even worse than that," he confided. "I broke
my wife's hard drive!"

"New Technology" (A LadyHawke's Favorite)

At a recent Sacramento PC Users Group meeting,
a company was demonstrating its latest speech-
recognition software. A representative from the
company was just about ready to start the
demonstration and asked everyone in the room
to quiet down.

Just then someone in the back of the room yelled,
"Format C: Return."

Someone else chimed in:
"Yes, Return"

Unfortunately, the software worked.
