As we "Silver Surfers" (older folks on the Internet) know, sometimes we have trouble with our computers.
I had a problem yesterday, so I called Eric, the eleven year old next door, whose bedroom looks like Mission Control and asked him to come over. Eric clicked a couple of buttons and solved the problem. As he was walking away, I called after him, 'So, what was wrong? He replied, 'It was an ID ten T error.' I didn't want to appear stupid, but nonetheless inquired, 'An, ID ten T error? What's that? In case I need to fix it again.' Eric grinned.... 'Haven't you ever heard of an ID ten T error before? 'No,' I replied. 'Write it down,' he said, 'and I think you'll figure it out.' So I wrote down: ID10T I used to like Eric, that little shit. |

As I get older, my pencil is not as sharp. It's amazing what these kids pick up today. Funny story.... |

Silver Surfers . . . . Humph . . . . Noisy bunch of kids. . . . Young whippersnappers, . . . I remember those days well, . . . . . thought I knew it all . . .
Now that I'm a Platinum Surfer . . I know that I know it all . . but, of course, I've forgotten most of it. .. . Now where is that power switch on this McIntosh again? Will someone please tell me what these flat round black things with the hole in the middle are?. . . Too light for a frisbee . . . Threw a few and they didn't fly too hot, broke when they hit the concrete. Think I'll get the trash man to haul them away. I don't claim to be the world's oldest audiophile for nothing. . . . .
