I think that there shall never be ...
A linux newbie just like me ...

Who roams the help throughout the day
on how I ever made my linux go away.

And after install # 253
begins to see that its not Free XP!

Who thought that gzip would zip all the files and dirs recursively. Did also
delete them most quietly!

But oh did I feel so defeated ...
When I see that gzip my system has deleted!

So now all my stuff's in one big file.
Because I didn't RTM for just a longer while!

So here I hope, you chuckle and smile ...
Over a most painful, linux trial!


-- Disclaimer: No bytes were permanently harmed by my ignoramousity, tho I
hope that they have forgiven me!
