My coworker beckons me to his office. “Another computer problem”, I thought. “Another waste of my time”.
I’m not the IT guy, and I don’t get paid to do IT, but everyone wants me to fix their computer / printers / copier problems. Why? Because I’m damn good at it. And a helluva lot better (and faster) at it than the guy that is getting paid to do IT.
“Winamp quit working, and all I get is this error. I can’t work without music! Please save me Mr. computer guy!”
Me, being the intelligent / compassionate guy that I am, proceeded to fix whatever it was that he broke. I literally lol’d at the error message on his screen. I took a quick snapshot of it so I could share it.
The Winamp coders have a sense of humor. Who woulda thunk it?
“This should never really happen”. Guess what chump, it did.

A giant inflatable pig that went missing from a Southern California music festival at the weekend has been found in tatters in a desert town.
The pig, which has been a signature Pink Floyd stage prop since its appearance on the 1977 cover of “Animals” and the song “Pigs on Wings,” broke away from its tethers on Sunday night at Coachella Valley Arts and Music Festival.
The festival organizers offered a $10,000 reward for the two-story inflatable pig belonging to ex-Pink Floyd frontman Roger Waters.
Two couples said on Wednesday they had found the shredded plastic remains of the pig outside their homes.
