    OK, I gotta admit I called the I.T. guy because I forgot my password. I called the I.T. guy because I couldnt get the printer to work (it had run out of paper) I called the I.T. guy because my computer wouldnt start (the plug had come unloose from the socket). I called the I.T. guy because I couldnt get 'Asian Babes' on the network (his boss had banned it - bastard).

    So in the end I shagged the I.T. guy and all my problems were solved.

    But you HAVE to admit - those guys are SUPER NERDS!

    LOL! Tis true, many folks seem to turn off their common sense when they approach a computer.

    When people would call for telephone support, and say "my computer is dead, I can't get it to turn on", I quickly learned that the first question to ask them was,

    "Check and see if it is plugged into the wall."

    9 times out of 10, it just wasn't plugged in. D'OH!!

    Hey, those things aren't bad - they can happen to anyone. I just get annoyed when I ask someone to click on the "start" button to get to the "programs" menu and they say to me, "HELP! I clicked the "start" button and my computer turned off!". Yep, she pushed the power button.

    So in the end I shagged the I.T. guy and all my problems were solved.

    We need more users like you around here. I would be pissed if I couldn't get "Asian Babes" too. And now you got me thinking about it...

    Got a link???
