Ode to my lost blog

from JoeUser Forums
Multi-tasking can be quite a pain
With windows all open it becomes a real strain
Chatting in one, homework in another
Composing an email, perhaps to my brother?
Update my system, snag the latest file
The desktop is crowded, ain't seen my wall in a while
These programs must go, far too many I say!
Click the upper-right corner, make them all go away
Then, like a brick, the thought enters my mind
One of those windows had a blog, at least a few lines
But alas, it is gone now, I closed it all right
And so, this lame poem, will be all for tonight

I read this and I swear it said Ode to my last blog, i read your previous blog but couldn't find a connection. Moved on to other stuff refreshed my page and re-read the title in the recent posts section ode to my LOST blog - as in missing

right! - I'm so dense sometimes

Did the same thing the other day but to a large document I'd been working on for days. Thank the powers that be I regularly archive my work otherwise I'd would have been in extremely deep poop.

I read it the same exact way, only instead of ode to last blog, like last one written before this one, I thought it was last blog ever... Got scared and had to read this one right away! HAHA! AND WHEW! Glad I misread it!

Me three, but I'm seriously dyslexic. I wouldn't be in here if not for misreading the title.

This is why I have software that automatically stores what I've typed for the last couple days. It's saved me more than once.

My big bugaboo is saving files to a RAM drive then, when the system crashes, just turning off the machine instead of rebooting. Bye-bye files.

I once lost three paragraphs of what I considered pretty interesting stuff, when the forum suddenly crashed.

Hmmmm, last blog. . . I have hatched a devious idea.

Fortunately it wasn't much of a blog, and pretty poorly written (and that is a change how?), so it is no loss. In fact, this little poem was more fun to write than the actual blog.

Funny Danny and Moderate.

Dev, looks like you almost scared the pants off us all!

I also read it as "last" blog. Weird.

BlueDev, I've temporarily suspended my won't-read-poetry-on-the-Internet attitude for this one. What can I say--I'm a sucker for poetry, eh?

I ALWAYS select all and CTRL-C before I hit submit on my blog articles now. Sometimes, I even do it with comments. Just in case... HAHA!
