On blogs, hosts and downtime.

Typing in my blog address,
I thought I’d login to wordpress,
And maybe even write a post,
Of something I’d done, a little boast.

The browser said the host was down,
The owner said he was out of town,
My speech was stifled, my blog was gone,
And all because I didn’t backup the previous morn.

For all my posts, they were lost,
Forget the work, think of the cost.
Now I must begin to post again,
If this happens once more, I’ll go insane,
I’ve restored once, I’ve restored twice,
I swear to you it isn’t nice.

When you have lost so much,
You get a little out of touch,
And think of silly rhymes and lines,
And numbers, 1s and 2s and 69s.

  1. You are insane! You don’t need a blog to drive you there.

  2. Quite, maybe it’ll drive me sane.

  3. No way. Your insanity is your default and permanent state of mind.

    Why did the 69 get there?

  4. That way it rhymes, see, beside it’s a nice number, innit?
