Description: Dr. Seuss as a Technical Writer
>If Dr. Seuss were a Technical Writer:
>
>            Here's an easy game to play.
>            Here's an easy thing to say.
>
>            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!
>
>            You can't say this?
>            What a shame, sir!
>            We'll find you
>            another game, sir!
>
>            If the label on the cable on the table at your house
>            Says the network is connected to the button on the 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 affects of Gauss,
>            So your icons in the windows are so 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 RISC.
>            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!
