Just got this on email and thought y'all might appreciate it - I did, especially with all the trouble I've been having with my compuker today (must be a ghost in the machine)...!
Dr. Seuss Explains Computer Crashes
Many of you have wondered why a computer crashes.
It is usually very technical but maybe this will help.
Dr. Seuss Explains Why Computers Sometimes Crash
(Read this to yourself aloud - it's GREAT!)
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 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 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 macro code 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!
