          Maybe I'm just showing my age and where I went to High School (So. California) - but my first thought was that the message would be followed by "as if" and "gnarly" prompts. :doh:

                      My favorite all time error message on a program I worked on- "Shut 'er down Clancy, she's pumping mud." shown just before the program crashed. No other information. Good for a laugh, but not much else.
