    Sorry about your stuff getting ruined, Roy
    I had a wipe-out like that once and it took a long time to stop missing certain things.

    I lost over 125 pages of edited fiction when my computer crashed two years ago... Four months of work wasted, and some of my better stuff lost forever. Needless to say, I now harbor a deep hatred for computers.. Don't trust 'em..

    Joke

    The Devil challenged God with a contest between him and Jesus, saying that he would win.

    God set up two PC's and told the Devil when the contest would start... each contestant would write programming for a period of three days, and when God yelled "STOP!" the contest would be over, and a comparison of the programs that were written by Jesus and the Devil would be evaluated...

    The contest began the next morning. Jesus and the Devil both sat at their keyboards, typing code as fast as they could.

    The day wore on... and on... and the next two days as well.

    After 71 hours, 31 minutes, and 50 seconds, the power suddenly went out! Both computer screens turned black!

    God quickly restored the power and the devil began ranting in frustration as he began furiously typing again at his monitor. Jesus, on the other hand, typed a few more characters, got Himself a coffee, sipped it thoughtfully, then typed for another 3 minutes. He finally sat back and looked relaxed.

    The remaining time passed quickly. God shouted "STOP!"

    The devil typed a few more characters, looking furtively over his shoulder to see if God noticed.

    God said, "Let's see what you have written."

    The Devil was asked to go first. He started his program, and an image of a flame started to burn on the screen, but then the screen went blank.

    Next it was Jesus' turn. He started his program, and the screen lit up with images of babies being born, children playing, couples kissing and then walking together to the altar, people praying together in church, angels fighting demons, the mountains in springtime, sunrise over the Serengeti... and on and on, with all kinds of beautiful images and music!

    As the program came to a close, the Devil shouted in anger, "He must have cheated! There is NO WAY that he wrote all that after the power went out!"

    God smiled patiently and said, "Oh no, He didn't cheat! Didn't you remember...

    ...

    ...

    ...

    Jesus saves!"



    Hope that did not offend anyone, I just thought it was a totally funny joke, and all to appropriate to the discussion! Sorry about your lost fiction, Hannah... been there done that and hated it!

    Heard that joke before, nowadays it's usually just repeated as "Jesus saves".

    LOL!

    The thing about bringing back an old joke is that the youngest among us may not have heard it.

    Since someone is taking a photo of the cat lying on the bed... does that classify as "kitty porn"?

    Wow! Beautiful.

    Would you consider selling your work? If so, I'm interested!
