Meanwhile, Back At Home ...
Published by Rick on Friday, August 06, 2010.
Sometimes we all have trouble with our computers. I had a problem yesterday, so I called Eric, the 11 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, "Ah! 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."
"Write it down," he said, "And I think you'll figure it out."
So I wrote it down: ID10T
I used to like Eric, the little bastard.
