June 14, 2013 - If it wasn't important, IT wouldn't send it

There's this printout that's really quite long.
It's a "numbers report?" Boy, that's wrong!
Why'd they get it? I'm stumped,
It is only a dump
Which is where it should go all along.

As I thought of this story, I knew
That my brain couldn't be that askew.
I Binged "Numbers Report"
Then I said with a snort
"Could it be what you call deja vu?"

"There's a problem. Please quickly come o'er!
There's no power!" Of that fact she swore.
What was making her flip?
It's her poor power strip.
Maybe she should try op'ning her door...


June 12, 2013 - And all those passwords will end up the same, too

As the iSeries admin, I'm great.
There's a name change. I cannot be late.
For my server, you'll know
You are ready to go.
Other logins? You may have to wait.


June 11, 2013 - It's the personal service that we like so well

There's a message I should not be seein',
So I phoned and I asked them for Ian.
First support said, "Oh, CARP!"
But he seemed really sharp.
I love small firms. You know what I mian?


June 10, 2013 - No, we can't name it either -- for the same reason

Hey, Exchange! We will just have to train 'ya.
It's a town! We're not trying to strain ya.
Don't give senders the blame,
It's an odd choice of name
Like that Amish town in Pennsylvania.
