1403966 2015-07-01 02:56:00 i actually wrote a poem


they're not going to stop anyone.
they want everyone to upgrade
it has to sound good to shareholders
windows 11 will be many things
not one of them is released
features released in 10.1
10.2 10.3
10.4 10.5
10.6 10.7
10.8 10.9
all in the name of windows insider
windows 11 will see the light of day
for free you run the beta
for free you run the stable
pay for the old version
pay for the new? nah that's old school.

Oh dear!
Easy to break,
expensive to repair.
At least there's Linux,
to relieve despair.

1403968 2015-07-01 04:37:00 I prefer this sad poem.............


"O Mary, go and call the cattle home,
2 And call the cattle home,
3 And call the cattle home
4 Across the sands of Dee";
5 The western wind was wild and dank with foam,
6 And all alone went she.

7 The western tide crept up along the sand,
8 And o'er and o'er the sand,
9 And round and round the sand,
10 As far as eye could see.
11 The rolling mist came down and hid the land:
12 And never home came she.

13 "Oh! is it weed, or fish, or floating hair--
14 A tress of golden hair,
15 A drownèd maiden's hair
16 Above the nets at sea?
17 Was never salmon yet that shone so fair
18 Among the stakes on Dee."

19 They rowed her in across the rolling foam,
20 The cruel crawling foam,
21 The cruel hungry foam,
22 To her grave beside the sea:
23 But still the boatmen hear her call the cattle home
24 Across the sands of Dee.

1403970 2015-07-01 05:30:00 in times of old , Dos reigned supreme
Win 3.1 scorned at , some felt it unclean
neer'r will be allowed , on any PC
we'll only teach Dos , thats all that need be


An ode to my time at Tech, when Win3.1 was like a swear word.
And in the true spirit of Shakespeare, Ive made up words to suit :thumbs:

1403971 2015-07-01 07:25:00 The common cormorant or shag
Lays eggs inside a paper bag
The reason you will see, no doubt
Is for to keep the lightning out
But wandering bears come along with buns
And steal the bags to hold the crumbs.

Hard to keep you happy Ricardo.

But glad you appreciated the pathos.
