The Internet's Down

So, the Internet's down
  Why the frown??
As my friends predicted
  I'm totally addicted

I could read a book
  yet I sit here and pout
'Cos what I want
  is currently out

Hey, I'll call a friend --  
  Hm. Their lines are all busy
I'm thinking Ben must be home
  The question is: Is he?

OK! Alright! Enough is enough!
  What's happened to me?
  I used to be tough
Ready: I'm steeling myself now. Grrrr...
  ~ Guess there's no iron in creampuffs!

Harry Horsman Date: 7/1/2020 3:34:00 AM Wow, Love the frustration, Gershon, a poem to include so many of us, when the net is down.... Login to Reply Gershon Wolf Date: 7/1/2020 4:17:00 PM Scary how dependent I've become on an electronic gadget. Then again, I take too many pills as well... And so it goes... Thanks, Harry!

Judy Ball Date: 6/30/2020 11:02:00 PM That's what happens when we get used to the pc. We can't function without it. A fun and timely read my friend. God Bless, JB Login to Reply Gershon Wolf Date: 7/1/2020 4:14:00 PM Thank you, JB... Actually I'm not quite that addicted. I did find something else to do... But it sure wasn't 'automatic,' like it would have been just a couple of years ago. Cheers, Gershon
