MAC ATTACK
Something’s wrong with my poor Mac
It’s acting very strange
It may have had a heart attack
Or else become deranged.
It doesn’t do the things I say
Or function like it should
It wants to go a different way
And that is never good.
I try to save what I just wrote
I press the proper key
But when I try to find the note
It’s nowhere I can see.
The spell check has been smoking crack
It now speaks only Greek
I click it and it answers back
With words I did not seek.
So many things have run amok
I think I need a nurse
To find a cure with any luck
Before things get much worse.
So I’ll unplug it’s life support
And take it to repair
And hope I get a good report
And not news of despair.
I do not want another one
I just want this one fixed
I do not know which way to run
My feelings are so mixed.
If they cannot mend this thing
I know I will be sad
This Mac is not a Diamond ring
But yet it’s not so bad.
At least I know it’s ins and outs
And how to work around them
I just can’t stand it when it pouts
And threatens me with mayhem.
So I must take myself off line
And miss a day or two
I think that that will be just fine
As long as I have told you.
I’m not the star of any show
Not everyone will miss me
I just want to let you know
So nobody will diss me.
For disappearing suddenly
And not hearting the daily
I’m vanishing quite thuddingly
But I’ll return most gaily.

Just a silly from the files. Gotta take this Mac in next week.
