    Subject: 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 a 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 everythings corrupted cause the index didn'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,
    then you may as well reboot it 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 on the disk,
    and the macro code instructions cause unnecessary risk,
    then you have to flush the memory & you want to RAM your ROM.
    Quickly turn off the computer, and be sure to tell your Mom
