12/31/2005 - A little New Year's humor

This post is for my mom, although others are welcome to read it.

As I sat down one evening,
'Twas in Starbucks Cafe,
A sweet, blue-haired barista
To me these words did say:

I see that you're a blogger,
And not just one of those nerds,
For no one but a blogger
Types acronyms for words.

I had a blogger boyfriend,
Unique, or so I’m told.
If you’d put it before him,
He'd eat whole pizzas, cold.

He never shaved his goaty
From off his small, weak chin;
He wrapped it round his bald spot
And fastened it with a pin.

My blogger came to see me,
His post was almost set.
He made a Python reference
I haven’t gotten yet.

He kissed me when we parted
Quite well, IMHO
To gaily post his musings
To town, my geek did go.

Oh, Google started stalling
It’s very sad to tell;
At a hundred K per second
He just typed LOL

Well, windows tried to freeze him,
It tried with all its wiles;
At seventeen K per second,
He closed some open files.

It froze clear down to China,
It froze his veins and blood.
At a forty-one bytes per second,
It froze my blogger bud.

His friends tried to reboot him
But no success had they;
So they stuck his brain in an XBox
To win at GTA

And so I lost my blogger,
And now serve hot drinks to herds;
Until somebody orders a

Venti
Vanilla
Soy
Chai
Latte
With
A
Sprinkle
Or
Two
Of
Cinnamon

Typing acronyms for
(“all together now”)
Wuuuuuuuuuuhds!!!!!!!!!
(“It’s ‘words,’ little Mosie”)
