Why Computers Crash!!


Dr. Seuss explains why computers sometimes crash.

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 t o report.

If your cursor finds a menu item followed by a dash,
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 of your floppy's getting sloppy in the disk
and the macrocode instructions cause unnecessary risk;
then, you'll have to flash the memory and you'll want to RAM your ROM
then quickly turn off the computer and be sure to tell your Mom!

That was hilariouus! It reminds me of a sign I saw on a desk one time, "To err is human; to really foul things up requires a computer!"

Thanks for the laugh.
