An ID 10 Error!



For those of us with the teeniest bit of lack of understanding when the computer plays up.

I was having trouble with my computer.

So I called Richard, the 11 year old next door whose bedroom looks like Mission Control, and asked him to come over.

Richard 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.’

Richard grinned. ’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: I D 1 0 T.

I used to like the little shit!
