>> WHAT IF DR. SEUSS DID TECHNICAL WRITING?
>>
>> 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!
>>
>> 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 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,
>>so your icons in the window are as wavy as a souse,
>>then you may as well reboot and go out 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.
