Transscript of call to Help Desk:

New User  - "This software won't install"

Help Desk - "OK, tell me what you did to install it"

NU        - "I followed the instructions just like it said,
            but now it won't do anything"

HD        - "What was the last message you got?"

NU        - "It told me that it had finished diskette number 1
            and to insert diskette number 2"

HD        - "OK, did you insert diskette number 2"

NU        - "Yes, and I had a really hard time getting it
            in that little slot on top of diskette number 1"

MAN OF THE CLOTH 

A man lost two buttons from his shirt and put them in his pants
pocket. But the pocket had a hole, so the buttons fell into his
shoe. Unfortunately, the shoe sole also had a hole, so he lost the
buttons. Since pockets with holes, holes without buttons and shoe
soles with holes are useless, the man ripped the buttonholes out of
his shirt and the pocket from his pants and tossed them in the trash
along with the soles of his shoes. After looking in a mirror, he
decided to toss his clothes in the trash as well. 

A policeman observed all this and asked the man for identification. 

The man produced a document that he was an ordained minister of the
gospel. 

The policeman promptly escorted him to a mental institution. 

The minister protested violently, asking why he was receiving such
unjust treatment. 

The policeman replied, "Anyone claiming to be a preacher, but who
doesn't save souls or wear holy clothes has probably lost his
buttons".
