Let's fix Jeff's computer
There was a mechanical engineer, a chemical engineer and a computer geek (jeff) riding in his 2004 f150 when it made a noise and stalled. The mechanical engineer said it sounded like a connecting rod broke. The chemical engineer said it sounded like it ran out of gas. The computer geek said it was a programing problem. When asked how to fix it he said for everone to get out and then get back in again.

These three guys had it coming. 2004 F150 (first year of a new model) = beta version or V1.0 = bugs.
