Businesses have backup problems too!
So it seems that it's just not individuals like me that are living on the edge. TechCrunch reports that the June issue of Business 2.0 magazine was deleted from their servers prior to going to print! And their backup server didn't do it's job... Most of the text was apparently retrieved from emails to lawyers, but all the graphics had to be recreated from scratch.

You have 10 cows. You make them work so that they give milk of 100 cows
WIPROism
GE has a cow. You take 49% of the milk.
DELLism
Intel has a Goat. Samsung has a Camel. Buy milk from both & sell it as Cow's milk.
IBMism
You have old stubborn cows. You sell them as pet dogs to innocent small businessmen.
MICROSOFTism
You have a cow. Force the world to buy milk from you. Spend a million dollars to feed poorer cows.

Welcome to Citibank. If you have a cow, press 1. If you have a bull, press 2...stay on line if you'd like our customer care to milk it for you.
HPism
You don't know if what you have is a cow. You sell complete milking solutions through authorized resellers only.
GEism
You have a donkey. People think you have a 100-year old cow. If someone finds out, that's his imagination at work.
RELIANCEism
You don't yet have a cow. You sell empty cans to people for Rs. 501, because Dhirubhai wanted everyone to have milk.
TATAism
You have a very old cow. You re-brand it as TATA Indicow
Yo! No hijacking the blog with corny jokes of all things!
