Saved from the trenches of RFC 822

Lots more good stuff here. Esp this ravenous discharge.

Dir Straits

I want my
I want my
I want my FTP

Now look at them yo-yo's that's the way you do it
You get the files from the FTP
That ain't programming, that's the way you do it
Programs for nothing and the code is free
Now that ain't programming, that's the way you do it
Let me tell you those guys aren't pissed
Maybe break a nail on your little finger,
Maybe get some numbness in your wrist

We've got to install operating systems
Custom software delivery
We've got to move these manual pages
RTFM those RFCs

See the little user with his gifs and the jpegs
Yeah buddy he's got root
That little user got his own workstation
That little user got his own disk to boot

We've got to install operating systems
Custom software delivery
We've got to move these manual pages
RTFM those RFCs

I should've learned to run xarchie
I should've learned to play them games
Look at that mama, her gif is sticking in the monitor
Man we could have some fun
And he's up there, what's that? Orgasm noises?
Playing sound files like a grade-school geek
That ain't programming that's the way you do it
Get your programs for nothing get your code for free

We've got to install operating systems
Custom software delivery
We've got to move these manual pages
RTFM those RFCs

Now that ain't programming, that's the way you do it
You get your programs from the FTP
That ain't programming that's the way you do it
Programs for nothing and your code for free
Programs for nothing and code for free

As I said, the main point of this post was saving this piece from the stupid format it was stored under in the original location. The ravenous discharge, if you followed the links, is much brillianter. But yes, we will try harder in the future ;)

(PS: Never drunk a cuppa in my life! Not a hot one, anyway.)
