This is a poem I have/am going to/and will write.
I shall label it ...hmmm...ahhh.. An Ode de Quota!
Its meant to be spoken(sung) in a sing/song chant.
--This song is for any beginning user
on a major network
[and the scrooges who doll out quota]
They give me a quota
of only 500.
with a hard limit set at 15
My disk space is always
at 499
with only 1 in between.
Yet, when I ask them for more,
over 500
they tell me to learn how to clean.
<chorus>
Clean, Clean, Clean out your files.
Throw away all you don't need!
Clean, Clean, Clean out your files.
But just don't come crying to me!
They tell me that Im fine
at 500
that anything more is just waste.
Yet I ask and I beg and I tell them
not to
say no straight to my face.
So they stop and ponder
listen and wonder,
and then they say NO to my face!!!
<chorus>
I've printed out stuff I don't need
and I've
erased some stuff that I do!
With everything all compressed
and archived
I'd die without less to pipe through!
And yet my quota is
still overflowing
for all that I need to do.
<chorus>
Someday I will get even.
for that
I just can't wait.
Someday I'll write a virus
oh boy,
will it be great!
I won't erase no files,
nor even a code or two,
I'll just have it move their quota
to 272.
<chorus>
OBJoke: Try singing this backwards at a slower rate! It should say "I love
God, I love God..."
