 IF THEY WROTE ERROR MESSAGES IN HAIKU 

  
   Yesterday it worked.
   Today it is not working.
   Windows is like that.
  
  
   To have no errors
   would be life without meaning.
   No struggle, no joy.
  
  
   You step in the stream,
   but the water has moved on.
   This page is not here.
  
  
   No keyboard present.
   Hit F1 to continue.
   Zen engineering?
  
  
   Hal, open the file.
   Hal, open the damn file, Hal,
   open the, please Hal...
  
  
   Out of memory.
   We wish to hold the whole sky,
   but we never will.
  
  
   Having been erased,
   the document you're seeking
   must now be retyped.
  
  
   The ten thousand things.
   How long do any persist?
   Netscape, too, has gone.
  
  
   Rather than a beep
   or a rude error message,
   these words: "File not found."
  
  
   Serious error.
   All shortcuts have disappeared.
   Screen. Mind. Both are blank

  
   Printer not ready.
   Could be a fatal error.
   Have a pen handy?
  
  
   Server's poor response
   not quick enough for browser.
   Timed out, plum blossom.
  
  
   Login incorrect.
   Only perfect spellers may
   enter this system.
  
  
   This site has been moved.
   We'd tell you where, but then we'd
   have to delete you.
  
  
   Wind catches lily
   scatt'ring petals to the wind.
   Segmentation fault.
  
  
   ABORTED effort:
   Close all that you have.
   You ask way too much.

  
   The Web site you seek
   cannot be located but
   endless others exist.

  
   Stay the patient course.
   Of little worth is your ire.
   The network is down.
  
  
   A crash reduces
   your expensive computer
   to a simple stone.
  
  
   There is a chasm
   of carbon and silicon
   the software can't bridge.

I did not write any of these. These came off of the internet, via a forwarded forwarded forwarded message ... I gather they are the results of some kind of contest to devise error messages in Haiku form.  8)
