Seniors and Computers.
I received this through a PM from another OPP member who wishes to remain anonymous.
As we Silver Surfers know, sometimes we have trouble with our computers.
Yesterday, I had a problem, so I called Georgie, the 11 year old next door, whose bedroom looks like Mission Control, and asked him to come over.
Georgie 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.
Georgiegrinned..'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 Georgie, the little shithead.

Will do. Probably when he gets older, but not more mature. It seems the older they get the more of a smart ass they become.

That would explain my behavior to the Sgt. Major. :oops:

I wish he were nest door. I would put up with his attitude to get help with the computer. I mean real help not Rock suggesting I exorcise it when it misbehaves. Beside that, I did get a fry pan in the housewares department, as per suggestion, so I am prepared if the kid gets too insulting.
