The original message had a cartoon preceding the poem, but it was, IMO,
weak. And I refuse to forward a message where "monitor" is spelled as
"moniter" and I'm powerless to change it :) The poem, OTOH, is cute...
I'm still more likely to get distracted following up on an entry in a
dictionary or an encyclopedia (hard copy) than one on a website, but I
do know -- to a T -- the pitfalls of such curiosity :)
From: M.W.
I asked the Lord to tell me
Why my house is such a mess.
He asked if I'd been 'putering',
And I had to answer "yes."
He told me to get off my fanny
And tidy up the house.
And so I started cleaning up...
The smudges off my mouse.
I wiped and shined the topside.
That really did the trick...
I was just admiring my work...
I didn't mean to 'click.'
But click, I did, and oops I found
A real absorbing site
That I got SO way into...
I was into it all night.<<Sigh>>
Nothing's changed except my mouse
It's very, very shiny.
I guess my house will stay a mess...
While I sit here on my hiney.
