Apple WWDC poem

DognightDan

Standing in the rain, with his head hung low
Couldnt get a ticket, it was a sold out show;
Heard the roar of the crowd, he could picture the scene
Put his ear to the wall, then like a distant scream

He heard one Steve Jobs, just blew him away
He saw stars in his eyes, and the very next day
Bought a beat up iPod
Touch in a secondhand store
Didnt know how to use it, but he knew for sure

That one iPod, felt good in his hands
Didnt take long, to install the SDK
Just one iPod, slung way down low
Was one way ticket, only one way to go.

So he started hackin
Aint never gonna stop.
Gotta keep on hackin
Someday he's gonna make it to the top.

And be a WWDC hero, got stars in his eyes
He's a WWDC hero
He took one iPod, WWDC hero, stars in his eyes
WWDC hero, he'll go live tonight

In a room without a light, in a heavy downpour
Thought he passed his own shadow, by the coldroom door;
Like a trip through the past, to that day in the rain
And that one Steve Jobs made his whole life change

Now he needs to keep hackin
He just can't stop
Gotta keep on hackin
That boy has got to stay on top

And be a WWDC hero, got stars in his eyes
He's a WWDC hero, got stars in his eyes
Yeah, WWDC hero, got stars in his eyes
With that one iPod he'll go live
Go live tonight!

Childhood Days

Childhood Days I made a big decision a little while ago. I don't remember what it was, which prob'ly goes to show That many times a simple choice can prove to be essential Even though it often might appear inconsequential. I must have been distracted when I left my home because Left or right I'm sure I went. (I wonder which it was!) Anyway, I never veered: I walked in that direction Utterly absorbed, it seems, in quiet introspection. For no reason I can think of, I've wandered far astray. And that is how I got to where I find myself today. Explorers are we, intrepid and bold, Out in the wild, amongst wonders untold. Equipped with our wits, a map, and a snack, We're searching for fun and we're on the right track! My mother has eyes on the back of her head! I don't quite believe it, but that's what she said. She explained that she'd been so uniquely endowed To catch me when I did Things Not Allowed. I think she must also have eyes on her rear. I've...

A lesson in economics

A Quick Lesson in Economics ........ An economics professor at a local college made a statement that he had never failed a single student, but had once failed an entire class. That class had insisted that socialism worked; that no one would be poor, and no one would be rich, a great equalizer. The professor then said, "OK, we will have an experiment in this class on socialism. All grades would be averaged, and everyone would receive the same grade; so no one would fail, and no one would receive an A. After the first test, the grades were averaged, and everyone got a B.. The students who studied hard were upset, and the students who studied little were happy. As the second test rolled around, the students who studied little had studied even less, and the ones who studied hard decided they wanted a free ride too, so they studied little. The second test average was a D! No one was happy. When the 3rd test rolled around, the average was an F. The scores never increased as bickering, b...
