h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

That's getting loooooooooooooooooooong....

New start:

There once was a techie from Rome

Who worked a long way from home


;^)#

His code traversed space

& he never used 'trace'


;^)#

cos it's something he couldn't condone

=======================================

Sick for a week with the flu

Back to find tons I must do

Piles of missed posts

Piles of missed posts

Some of them ghosts


;^)#
hmm why isnt there a word meaning duplicate that rhymes with posts

And lots that belong down the loo.

*****

A hitchhiker held up his thumb

Waiting for a lift to come

After four hours of waitin'

He started a' gaitin'


;^)#

Suddenly feeling quite dumb

(When he realized the lights weren't flashing )

+++++

Reviving a lethargic thread

Which personally, I thought was dead

(not really!!!!)

I saw with a shock

The rest of the flock


;^)#

And I flipped and I stood on my head.

There once was a thousand-word poem

I thought it would really show 'em


;^)

They read til they yawned
