PC Users Lament

Sung to the tune of 'Let It Snow'

Cracked Carols: PC User's Lament

Thanks to Vern Seward and his "Just a Thought" column, we're treated to this wonderful little song, sung to the tune of 'Let It Snow'...

Vern says:

To those poor souls destine to spend Christmas and New Year's in a straight jacket, I dedicate this little ditty.

"PC User's Lament"
(Sung to the tune of 'Let It Snow')

I use a PC and I'm a-frettin'
cuz viruses my box is a-gettin'
Now all I can say is, "Oh No!"
Windows Froze! Windows Froze! Windows Froze!

I was in Project and was a-peckin'
on a big contract I was a-workin'
Now nothing on my screen will go!
Windows froze, Windows froze, Windows froze!

When I tried to reboot
it crashed
and I got a fatal error.
Now all the stuff that I did
is trashed,
And I got to start all over!

Well, I got a deadline that's a-loomin'
or pink slips will soon be a-bloomin'.
If I'd done this on a Mac I'd be through!
Wish I knew, wish I knew, wish I knew.

Vern Seward is a writer who currently lives in Orlando, FL. He's been a Mac fan since Atari Computers folded, but has worked with computers of nearly every type for 20 years.
