Why Computers Sometimes Crash! by Dr. Seuss.
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 it all and go out with a bang
'cos as sure as I'm a poet, this here sucker's gonna hang.
When the copy on 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
quickly turn off the computer and be sure to tell your Mom!
Well, that certainly clears things up for me. How about you?
