Those of you who subscribe to my Twitter feed will have seen this already, but I just had to blog about something that happened on Friday on the way up to a friend’s cottage in northern Ontario — we stopped for gas at the local Esso station and here is what I saw (click the image below for the full-sized version):

It’s a Windows XP error that says: “The file or directory C:\\XPE_ROOT\system32 is corrupt and unreadable. Please run the Chkdsk utility.” Luckily, I was still able to get gas :-)

A quick check of Flickr shows that there is a universe of similar shots, including this one and this one and this one — and for some Canadian content, this one.
