Twas the night after Christmas
In the server room,
nothing had happened
all dull and in gloom.

No meltdown, no failure
No flak from the boss,
The season is over
though at a slight loss.

The script kids were all
nestled snug their beds,
With visions of trojans
run amuk in their heads.

When there came a ringing
The admin machine,
It just found a virus
and proceeded to clean.

And then came the spammers
with VBS hacks.
The worms and the virii
and IE attacks.

I sat there and watched
though hardly amused,
We're back to what's normal
and badly confused.

I thank thee for Christmas
and I do believe,
In one day of goodness
and a short reprieve.

And next year I trust
the spam will be light,
So I can have Chistmas
and not work all night.

Dang, Jeff ... This was posted on xmas and is still active on my
server (I'm just hesitant to delete your posts -- I know, a sickness
for which there is no known cure).

Yet my server seems hesitant to keep other posts to which I'd like to
read (I can often see them in followups, sorta giving me the feeling
that I am outta the loop .... with good cause, but for many other
reasons).

I think it's time for another Conspiracy Theory (tm).
