"Alas, Poor Yorick! I knew him, Horatio: a fellow of infinite jest, of most excellent fancy: he hath borne me on his back a thousand times; and now, how abhorred in my imagination it is! my gorge rims at it. Here hung those lips that I have kissed I know not how oft. Where be your gibes now? your gambols? your songs? your flashes of merriment, that were wont to set the table on a roar? Not one now, to mock your own grinning? quite chap-fallen? Now get you to my lady's chamber, and tell her, let her paint an inch thick, to this favour she must come; make her laugh at that."
-Hamlet, Act Five, Sc.1
One of the many greatest moments of Hamlet and Shakespeare's works.
"....You cannot separate the just from the unjust and the good from the wicked; For they stand together before the face of the sun even as the black thread and the white are woven together. And when the black thread breaks, the weaver shall look into the whole cloth, and he shall examine the loom also." -Khalil Gibran, The Prophet
Fields of Interest: Computer science, Software engineering, Astronomy, Philosophy.
I've been on Wikipedia for a while, besides vacation
I find it very useful in finding information.
But alas, Poor Yorick, Wikipedia made me a Wikipediaholic
Damn it Wiki, a POX on thee!!
I've been on the 12 steps to recovery,
but got stuck on number three.
What to do, what to do
What would be the prudent thing to do?
Abstain thy Wiki? Ruin thee? Cry?
On the verge of madness, was I
And then I realized, in my newfound philosophy
That Wiki was a blessing, not a curse
So I embarked on a quest for knowledge
Searching for things like Gosport and nurse
To find in much horror, that it was BORING
I'd much rather go out and meet a girl
Throwing one-liners and scoring
So I decided to leave my loft, my wings unfurled
And I am reminded, as I leave the computer
Of an old folk parting, by two comedians, Johnny and Frank
Good Bye, so long, farewell, adieu mon vieux
Good Bye until we meet again!
(Probably next week, curse that Wikipediaholic ;) =Ţ)
