Alt Jokes

The computer user`s reboot poemDon`t you wish when life is bad
and things just don`t compute,
That all we really had to do
was stop and hit reboot?

Things would all turn out ok,

Ctrl, Alt, and Delete

Your boss is mad, your bills not paid,

Just stop and hit those wonderful keys
that make it all reboot

You`d like to have another job
but you fear living in the street?
You solve it all and start a new,
Ctrl, Alt, and Delete
