Over a year ago, my manager, Louis,
Office 2007 Key, wondered aloud what Help would look like if it were written by famous writers. The concept tickled my fancy and I wrote a couple of parodies of famous authors writing Publisher Help content. I love this idea, so I'm going to publish these parodies and ask you all to make suggestions in the comments of other authors who might make good Help writers, or even better to write your own parodies in the comments. So here we go.....

Colonel-General Tupolev was a demanding taskmaster, but the task he gave to his adjutant, Major Tamilla Kortovna,
Microsoft Office Professional 2010, was even more daunting than was his usual wont. He required a set of place cards for the annual 'Umansko-Berlinskaya' Brigade reunion, over 12,000 current and former members of the Guards Motor Rifle Brigade had registered in three different Russian military, veterans, and Party databases. He wanted the cards printed by tomorrow at 10:00. Of course the Colonel-General also had to have the reunion in the Ingushetian provincial center of Nazran,

Tamilla called the IT department of the 58th Combined Arms Army and lit a fire under the Officer of the Watch. Her connection was up in under five minutes. While she waited, Tamilla booted her notebook and opened the Publisher place card template she had downloaded earlier from Office.com. She replaced the template's graduation cap with the regimental crest,
Microsoft Office 2010, added one of the stock military clip art borders through the Insert tab’s Borders and Accent building block collection, and changed the color and font schemes on the Page Design tab. Since the Internet connection was now up, she then clicked the Mailing tab,
Windows 7 Ultimate Key, launched the Step by Step Mail Merge Wizard and added the three databases in the Mail Merge Recipients dialog box, and clicked OK.
That’s when the truck bomb exploded in the courtyard.
What do you think? Log in and post your thoughts, suggestions, and your own parodies in the comments. On Monday I'll publish a Publisher 2007 catalog merge article written by Raymond Chandler!
