*Another* "vintage" one (as usual, my *passive* memory works better
than my active one; I remember having seen it it before <g>). The
introductory note from "the source" says it all however. Hope it'll
brighten a day for some of y'all as well :)
From: E.S.
Perhaps this is something for chat?
my computer is acting up, I cannot open any discs, my
oldest son is back on the sick list, my best friend is
moving away, so Dr. Seuss was a welcome change and
perhaps someone else needs some cheering up - kindest
regards, Eva
Why Computers Sometimes Crash! by Dr. Seuss.
(Read this to yourself aloud - it's great!)
If a packet hits a pocket on a socket on a port, and
the bus is interrupted at a very last resort, and the
access 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!
If the label on the cable on the table at your house,
says the network is connected to the button on your
mouse, but your packets want to tunnel to another
protocol, that's repeatedly rejected by the printer
down the hall.
And your screen is all distorted by the side effects
of gauss, so your icons in the window are as wavy as a
souse; then you may as well reboot and go out with a
bang, 'cuz sure as I'm a poet, the sucker's gonna
hang.
When the copy on your floppy's getting sloppy in the
disk, and the macro code instructions is causing
unnecessary risk, then you'll have to flash the memory
and you'll want to RAM your ROM, and then quickly turn
off the computer and be sure to tell your Mom!
