Well lets put it this way my computer at home has gone wrong AGAIN! It's a Windows ME. First it started messing around with loading programs up. Then it decided to delete everything off my floppy disks and decided not to save anything onto floppy disc. I can't save on to D drive because it's a read only drive and it doesn't have a pen drive. I can't save on to C drive because if I do the computer goes wrong. Again.
Sorry for the rant.

It's so simple to be wise. Just think of something stupid to say and say the opposite.
The dumbest people I know are those who know it all.
The best thing about the future is that it only comes one day at a time.
Life is rather like a tin of sardines - we're all of us looking for the key.
If you're not confused, you're not paying attention. - Finally the perfect excuse for my confusion in chat! :P

I agree, if you want soem help interpreting this quote here it is:
To err is to make a mistake; and that is only human. But add technology to somthing that naturally makes mistakes and you could end up with a real distater. How many mistakes are made by typing something and sending it to the wrong person? well this is taking about things even bigger than that. I like this quote !

That quote makes no sense because I could turn it into 10,000 thousand things that all equal yes.
1.) Its human to cause errors but to cause true chaos now days you would need a computer = Yes
2.) To talk shit is human but to truely ruin someone you would need a computer = Yes
