HUMOR: Dr. Seuss (sort of)

["Jeannine Towler (JJ)" <jjtowler@PEN.K12.VA.US>]

Oh, those horsey friends of mine have come up with another
one!  I think even Dr. Seuss would approve of this take-off on
his work!

>  Here's an easy game to play
>  Here's an easy thing to say
>
>  If a packet hits a pocket on a socket on a port
>  And the bus is interrupted as a very last resort
>  And the address of the memory makes your floppy disk abort
>  Then the socket packet pocket has an error to report
>
>  If your cursor finds a menu item followed by a dash
>  And the double-clicking icon puts your window in the trash
>  And your data is corrupted 'cause the index doesn't hash
>  Then your situation's hopeless, and your system's gonna crash
>
>  You can't say this?
>  What a shame sir
>  We'll find you
>  Another game sir
>
>  If the label on the cable on the gable at your house
>  Says the network is connected to the button on your mouse
>  But your packets want to tunnel on another protocol
>  That's repeatedly rejected by the printer down the hall.
>
>  And your screen is all distorted by the side effects of gauss
>  And your icons in the window are as wavy as a souse
>  Then you may as well reboot and then go logout with a bang
>  'Cause as sure as I'm a poet, the sucker's gonna hang
>
>  When the copy of your floppy's getting sloppy on the disk
>  And the microcode instructions cause unnecessary risk
>  Then you have to flash your memory and you'll want to RAM your ROM
>  Quickly turn off the computer and be sure to tell your Mom
