A pilot, Michael Jordon, Bill
Gates, the
Pope, and a pizza delivery man were all in a plane together
traveling through stormy conditions.
Suddenly, the pilot came running
back to the passengers and announced
that lightning had hit the
plane, and they were going to crash in a
matter of minutes. "There are
only enough parachutes for four of the five
of us," he announced.
"Since I'm the pilot, I get one!" After
saying this, the pilot
grabbed a parachute and jumped out of the plane.
"I'm the world's
greatest athlete," proclaimed Michael Jordon.
"This world needs
great athletes, so I must live." Michael Jordon then
grabbed a
parachute and leaped out of the plane.
"I'm the smarest man in the
world," bragged Bill Gates. "The world
needs smart men, so I must also
live!" Bill Gates grabbed a parachute
and jumped out of the
plane.
At this point, the Pope began to speak. "I have lived a long
life
compared to you, and you may take the last parachute. I will
go down with
the plane."
"You don't have to stay here! The
world's smartest man jumped out of
the plane with my backpack."

While trying to diagnose a
problem over
the phone I told the user to type out his autoexec.bat file.
He
said it said "File not found".
I told him to do a dir.
I
asked him if he saw autoexec.bat listed.
He said, "Well it says
autoexec, then there's some spaces, but no
dot, and then it says
bat."
I said type this in "type autoexec.bat".
Again he got
"File not found".
I asked him to tell me exactly what he
typed.
He said, "I typed just what you told me: `type
autoexecdotbat'.

A customer
needed help setting up a new

to the local Egghead.

said. When told Egghead
was a software store, the man said, "Oh, I
thought you meant for me
to find a couple of geeks."

Many people in computer labs will assure
you, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that they were doing everything
correctly, and it still wasn't working, only to make you get up from your
nice
comfy seat to walk over to the other side of the room and do
it
yourself. Invariably, after it works the first time for you, the
response is,
"THAT'S WHAT I TYPED THE FIRST TIME!" Obviously
not.
