so many cares to vex the day, so many fears to haunt the night, my heart was all but weaned away from every lure of old delight. then summer came, announced by june, with beauty, miracle and mirth. she hung aloft the rounding moon, she poured her sunshine on the earth, she drove the sap and broke the bud, she set the crimson rose afire, she stirred again my sullen blood and waked in me a new desire. before my cottage door she spread the softest carpet nature weaves and deftly arched above my head a canopy of shady leaves. her nights were dreams of jeweled* skies, her days were bowers rife with song, and many a scheme did she devise to heal the hurt and soothe the wrong — for on the hill or in the dell, or where the brook went leaping by or where the fields would surge and swell with golden wheat or bearded rye:

1. in the beginning god created the bit and the byte. from these he created the word.
2. gave him two bytes to the word, nothing else existed. god divided the one from zero and realized that they have done a good thing.
3. and god said, “let the data.” and the data were. and god said:”let the data go to their place!” so he created floppy disks, hard disks and compact disks.
4. and god said, “let the computers, because floppy disks, hard disks and compact disks have a place!” so god created the computer, and called hardware.
5. there was no software, but god created the programs, large and small, and said: “go and multiply, and fill all the memory!”
6. and god said: “i will create the programmer. the programmer will create new programs and manages your computers, programs and data “
7. and god created programmer and put him in the datacenter. she pointed to a catalog, telling him: “you can use each volume and subvolume, but do not use windows!”
8. and god said: “it’s not good, that the programmer should be alone.” he took a rib programmer and created a creature that would worship the programmer and love what makes the programmer. god called this creature user.
9. the programmer and the user were left alone in raw dos. it was all well and good.
10. but bill was smarter of the other creatures of god. churches users: “but god has really told you not to use your software?”
11. and users said: “god has told us that we can use every program and every information, but not to start windows, lest we die.”
12. and bill said to the user: “how can you say this one thing, that you have never tried it? since, in which windows start it, you will be like god. you can create anything you like. just a click with your mouse.”
13. and the user saw that the fruits of the windows were nicer and easier to use. he realized that now all knowledge had become useless since windows could replace it.
14. so it was settled that the windows users on their computers. travelers said to the programmer that it was good and right.
15. and the programmer immediately began the search for new drivers. god asked him: “what are you looking for?” the controller replied: “i’m looking for new drivers because in dos not find them.” and god said, “who told you that you need new driver?” and the programmer said: “ has he told bill! “
16. and god said to bill: “for what you did you will be hated by all the creatures. each user will be unhappy with you. you will sell windows forever! “
17. and god said to users: “for what you did, the windows will disappoint you forever and forever will eat your information. you have to use boring programs, and you will always rely help of programmer! “
18. and god said to the programmer: “since you have obeyed the user, the user will never be happy with you. all of your programs will be full of errors, and you will need to correct them. until the end of time! “
19. and god expelled them from the data center and locked the door. he protected it with a password.
