Artificial Airheadedness
Hats off to my nephew, Aaron Ghent, for his unsung role as projectionist at the English Worship Service in Itayanagi. Weekly he wrestles with the computer phenomenon to be known henceforth as "artificial airheadedness". Even as experts around the world strive to produce artificial intelligence, computers are proving their ability to mess up all on their own. Carefully prepared song lyrics on Power Points have a tendency to rearrange themselves onto the next page, automatically. Doubtless programers will hasten to assure me that the fault lies with the operator, but I can't help feeling that in the virtual world, as in the real one, it will prove much easier to get it wrong than to get it right.

As an official spokesperson for all the programmers around the world, I have to inform you about this situation. It is in fact the operators fault. He shall respect his system and care for it. And the system shall be very thankful and respect its operator and care for him. Let me also assure you, that all your hypotetical thoughts that programmers might at times produce errors are proven wrong. Programmers never fail. Should you ever again spread a lie, saying anything different than the universal truths stated above, the programmers union and the computers union in unison will have to prevent you from using your computers productively. This may result in you experiencing more technical errors than you do currently, especially more of the so-called Blue Screens(c) or the Artificial Airheadedness.
So beware therefore of the consequences that your lies have. And that you may never err in that matter again.
Oh great swami Patrice, I repent in sackcloth and ashes and promise not to do it again, for a few days at least.
