| COPILOT: |
AIIIIEEEEEE! What the
hell was that? We've lost horizontal scroll! We're losing altitude:
18000 feet. |
| PILOT: |
Quick, hand me volume 3
of the user manual! |
| COPILOT: |
There is no volume 3.
16000 feet! |
| PILOT:
|
What do you mean there's
no volume 3? It says right here in the trouble shooting guide: "Loss
of horizontal scroll: see volume 3, section 3." |
| NAVIGATOR:
|
Volume 3 isn't out in
hardcopy yet but it's on their web site. |
| COPILOT:
|
15000 feet! |
| PILOT: |
Ok. What's URL? |
| NAVIGATOR:
|
I don't know. Do a
search. Go to yahoo. |
| COPILOT:
|
Altavista's better.
14000 feet. |
| PILOT:
|
Ok.
A-L-T-A-V-I-S-T-A-dot-com. Ok. Here it is. Hey, what the hell is
this? |
| COPILOT:
|
Oh. That's not
Altavista's URL. It's either Digital-dot-altavista-dot-com or
altavista-dot-digital-dot-com. 12000 feet. Or maybe it's
altavista-slash-digital-dot-com. |
| NAVIGATOR:
|
Just click the search
button and you can have your choice of search engines. |
| COPILOT:
|
11000 feet. |
| PILOT:
|
There's no time |
| NAVIGATOR:
|
Hotbot! Type in
hotbot-dot-com! |
| COPILOT:
|
10000 feet. |
| PILOT:
|
Hotbot! Hotbot! Hotbot!
Hotbot! Hotbot! Got it! What should I search for? |
| COPILOT:
|
Hmmm... how about "Airline",
"emergency", 9000 feet |
| NAVIGATOR:
|
That's too generic! |
| COPILOT:
|
Well excuse me for not
spending my whole workday playing on the internet |
| NAVIGATOR:
|
Shut up. SIR, TYPE IN
EXACTLY WHAT I SAY: volume 3 section 3 loss horizontal scroll ENTER!
No don't type "enter" hit the enter key! |
| COPILOT:
|
8000 feet. |
| PILOT:
|
Ok! It found
something...."Emergency Procedures: Loss of Horizontal Scroll"
That's it! |
| NAVIGATOR:
|
Yes! Information to the
rescue! |
| PILOT:
|
That internet is
something, isn't it? |
| COPILOT:
|
7000 feet. You guys
better hurry. |
| PILOT:
|
SHUT UP! Hey, nothings
happening. It's blank! |
| COPILOT:
|
6000 feet. |
| NAVIGATOR:
|
There! There, down at
the bottom. It says something. What does it say? |
| COPILOT:
|
5000 feet. |
| PILOT:
|
I don't see anything. |
| NAVIGATOR:
|
There! At the VERY
bottom. |
| COPILOT:
|
4000 feet. |
| PILOT:
|
Oh, I see it! I see it!
It says..."Loading Applet....". |
