Rhetoric
If they get olive oil from olives, where do they get baby oil?
If copying an entire textbook is illegal, how about copying two pages
of it at a time?
Did you know our Canadian loonies are eleven sided polygons? Did
you know an eleven sided polygon is called an undecagon (Latin root),
or an hendecagon (Greek root)? Did you know that a kindergarten girl
asked this question and gave quite a few mathematicians (including her
grandpa) a hard time?
The Last Bug
"But what does it matter?"
They said with a shrug.
"The customer's happy.
What's one little bug?"
But he was determined.
The others went home.
He spread out the program
Deserted....alone.
The cleaning man came.
The whole room was cluttered
With punch cards, core dumps,
"I'm close," he muttered.
His mumbling grew louder,
"Simple deduction!
I've got it! It's right!
Just change one instruction!"
It still wasn't right,
As year followed year,
And strangers would query,
"Is that nut still here?"
He died at his console
Of hunger and thirst.
They buried him next day
Face down - nine edge first.
The last bug in sight,
One small ant passing by,
Saluted his tombstone
And whispered, "Nice try." |
