"Re: song contest" joke

To lighten your day, especially if you're a tutor in CSC 104, 108, etc.,
here's a gripe sent in by a first-year student using the PC's:
This may sound like a dumb question but yesterday I wanted to make a
backup copy of my disk so I put them both in the drive. At first they...
(That's right, "the" drive. The PC's have ONE floppy drive.)
...wouldn't fit together, but after some force they did fit snuggly. I
then realized I hadn't "new"-ed the second disk so I typed new. All of a
sudden the drive made a lot of strange sounds and I could'nt get the
disks out any more. What did I do wrong ???
