I posted to the listserve,
Replied to cyberspace,
But early the next morning,
Mail Demon sent it back...

And wrote upon it,
REPLY TO SENDER: email unknown,
No such listserve, yeah, it was gone,
I check the URL*, read the FAQ*
I found that all my postings just kept coming back

Replied again to listserve,
Clicked "High Priority"
But early the next morning,
The demon sent it back to me

*Note, the "rhyme" works better if these terms are pronounced as words
instead of letters.  Sorry 'bout that!

Why Elvis gyrates:
The library I work in currently has names attached to the various public PCs
to help identify them easily when reporting technical problems.  You know,
Bob, Jane, Dana, Fran, etc.  Even Elvis.

Yesterday a student came to me to report a technical problem with a stuck
diskette.  My boss asked what the problem was and it was all I could do to
keep from busting out laughing...the student told my boss that Elvis had a
disk stuck up his A drive
