Computer Techs

Everyone wants free help from that Computer expert, Hubby of mine. They want to know his computer secrets, on what he does, each time. So let me give you some hints, for he’s brilliant, in what he can do! Then, if you believe me… Well, that will be…strictly up to you. Whenever the line SLOWS down, it’s FBSOW! What does that mean? That there’s a Fat Bird Sitting On the Wire, hanging on so tight… That he’s choking your signal off… So, you see! It’s time to call a tech! He’ll be able to send a signal out to… Yep, to Kick that big ole’ Bird off! When you try to turn your computer on, and it doesn’t want to come on? Hubby will send a signal to kick it, in its’ illustrious little ole’, tin pants! You see, there’s no better way to wake up… the Slug-A-Bug there… That’s stopping it from coming on, cause he wants to snooze, a bit more! You’ve a computer that squeaks and grinds, and isn’t acting very nice? Then he’ll send it a little more juice that’ll oil, its spinning hinges up. You’d be amazed what a little juice can do…to help those Hamsters’ out! He’ll make it hum, as those Hamsters run, and enjoy themselves, all night! Hey… Got Bug-A-Boos’ in the system? Having trouble with The Internet? He’ll send another type of signal to send those amazing spider-bots out. They can catch those spy-bots quick, within those webs they love to spin. You know! Spy-bots that mine your info, and love to give it out, again! But too many cobwebs can begin, to clog everything, slowing it, way down. Then Hubby can sic that Fat Bird Sitting On the Wire to clean them out! What!! What did you think make him so fat? Surely, you must of, seen that? But Hubby knows, and that’s WHY, as a computer tech, he gets the big bucks! And all this time, you’ve been none the wiser! Now, what do you think of that! Written by Mike and Carol Eastman
