My Absurd Writing award today goes to the book "Stepping Up To OS/2 2.0"
which in its chapter on installing the operating system advises:

   "Switch the computer off, wait 30 seconds and switch it on again
    if nothing happens."

 One bright, beautiful Sunday morning, everyone in the tiny
 town of Waller, Texas got up early and went to the local
 church. Before the Services started, the townspeople were
 sitting in their pews and talking about their lives, their
 families, etc.  
 
 Suddenly, Satan appeared at the front of the church.
 Everyone started screaming and running for the front
 entrance, trampling each other in a frantic effort to get 
 away from evil incarnate.  Soon everyone was evacuated
 from the Church, except for one elderly gentleman who sat
 calmly in his pew, not moving . . . seemingly oblivious to
 the fact that God's ultimate enemy was in his presence.
 
 Now this confused Satan a bit, so he walked up to the man
 and said, "Don't you know who I am?"
 The man replied, "Yep, sure do."
 Satan asked, "Aren't you afraid of me?"
 "Nope, sure ain't," said the man.
 Satan was a little perturbed at this and queried, "Why
 aren't you afraid of me"
 The man calmly replied, "Been married to your sister for
 over 48 years."
