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 (...and to think I used to like the little sh!t.....)
