Your file was so big.

It might be very useful.

But now it is gone.



The Web site you seek

Cannot be located, but

Countless more exist.



Yesterday it worked.

Today it is not working.

Windows is like that.



First snow, then silence.

This thousand-dollar screen dies

So beautifully.



With searching comes loss

And the presence of absence:

"My Novel" not found.



Stay the patient course.

Of little worth is your ire.

The network is down.



Three things are certain:

Death, taxes and lost data.

Guess which has occurred.



You step in the stream,

But the water has moved on.

This page is not here.



Having been erased,

The document you're seeking

Must now be retyped.



Chaos reigns within.

Reflect, repent and reboot.

Order shall return.



Aborted effort.

Close all that you have worked on.

You ask far too much.



Windows NT crashed.

I am the Blue Screen of Death.

No-one hears your screams.



A crash reduces

Your expensive computer

To a simple stone.



Out of memory.

We wish to hold the whole sky,

But we never will.



I ate your Web page.

Forgive me; it was tasty

And tart on my tongue.



Herr Uebersaetzer, Vielen Dank!
