I got one:
I'm sitting here looking at the same screen,
all I see is the same thing
I click and click and not a thing blinks
I know I know comes to mind
I'll ctrl alt del tab tab and tab
nothing still.
Maybe is time to pull the cord.
Now I see how much I've been missing outside of this screen.

That is good...
The man who in view of gain thinks of righteousness; who in the view of danger is prepared to give up his life; and who does not forget an old agreement however far back it extends - such a man may be reckoned a complete man.

I got this via email....I don't know who made it up...
A computer was something on TV
From a science fiction show of note
A window was something you hated to clean
And ram was the cousin of a goat.
Meg was the name of my girlfriend
And gig was a job for the nights
Now they all mean different things
And that really mega bytes.
An application was for employment
A program was a TV show
A cursor used profanity
A keyboard was a piano.
Memory was something that you lost with age
A CD was a bank account
And if you had a 3-inch floppy
You hoped nobody found out.
Compress was something you did to the garbage
Not something you did to a file
And if you unzipped anything in public
You'd be in jail for a while.
Log on was adding wood to the fire
Hard drive was a long trip on the road
A mouse pad was where a mouse lived
And a backup happened to your commode.
Cut you did with a pocketknife
Paste you did with glue
A web was a spider's home
And a virus was the flu.
I'll stick to my pad and paper
And the memory in my head
No one's been killed in a computer crash
But it makes their face turn red!

electrons jump from atom to atom
creating currents of infinite possibility
The world once vast is now shrunken
by the smallest thing known to man
aahhhhh not bad i guess, if i do say so myself.

MilliAmpere met MicroFarad and they fluxed all night (there was a whole long poem that I learned in USMC as a mnemonic for electronics class but this is all I can remember of it, sigh)
