For when your PC next plays up...
« on: April 26, 2010, 01:19 AM »
Hi

As this is my first post here's a little poem I wrote, to help you keep your cool...Well, that's the theory.  :)

I'm a mobile, PC-whisperer in the mornings (and a writer in the afternoons) so I had no trouble coming up with the idea!


Enjoy...


YOUR SICK PC

There sits your stuffed computer.
Evil look upon its face.
"I'll give a hard time," it says.
"I'm putting you in your place."

"No need to do a thing," it says.
"Please -- leave everything to me.
I've decided that I'm the dog...
and you're certainly the tree."


If you're going round in circles then you're cutting corners.

Interviewer: Is there anything you don't like?
Bjarne Stroustrup: Marketing hype as a substitute for technical argument. Thoughtless adherence to dogma. Pride in ignorance.

Excellent! Must be a true poet, as you are able to so well express what many of us have certainly felt many times.  :D

Thanks!
