Journals - WINDOWS error messages as HAIKUs

In Japan, they have replaced the impersonal and unhelpful Microsoft error messages with their own Japanese HAIKU poetry, each only 17 syllables,
5 syllables in the first line, 7 in the second, five in the third...

A file that big?
It might be very useful.
But now it is gone.

------------------------

The Web site you seek
Can not be located but
Countless more exist.

------------------------

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 VISTA crashed.
I am the Blue Screen of Death.
No one hears your screams.

------------------------

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.

------------------------

The Tao that is seen
Is not the true Tao-until
You bring fresh toner.

------------------------

Stay the patient course.
Of little worth is your ire.
The network is down.

------------------------

A crash reduces
Your expensive computer
To a simple stone.

------------------------

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.

------------------------

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.

------------------------

Serious error.
All shortcuts have disappeared.
Screen. Mind. Both are blank.

-----------------------

About Ulli

about my business life:
2 jobs, much satisfying work, influence, and responsibility

about my private life:
... I like good conversation with friends & having fun (maybe a little more in future?!)
... travelling is fine
... I am like a German highway: NO SPEED LIMIT , but I can act real slow if it's more enjoyably...

a few thoughts:
... it's the time of change
... live an authentic life
... things are only impossible until they are not
... don't go where the path leads, only if you go where there is no path you'll leave a trail
