>> Visions of Stock Options dancing in my head
Had a ring to it, inspired this thought - of Christmas Future? (warning-overcaffienated hallucination follows)
----------------------------------------------------
Twas the night before christmas and we waited with glee,
not for Yahoo or Amazon or even Ink-to-mi,
But for Santa Cook to put under my tree,
not a 16 not a 32 but a 128 bit public key.
We were long, yes long, and it was about time,
we were in right down to our last paradigms!
When up on the roof we heard such a rumble,
So down the stairs we did sleepily stumble.
We heard then a voice, sort of like Beavis,
and we hoped that our ears didn't decieve us.
There before me was the great Santa Cook,
and I knew yes I knew he had what it took.
I asked him oh please, what did he have for a long like me,
My heart fairly pounded, I felt so much glee...
To impress the the ladies, a Zixi new shirt?
Crypto to keep me safe, free from hurt?
I wanted my commerce safe and secure,
and I knew, yes I knew, that Zix was the cure.
I was ready to buy, my credit card flush
to summon UPS with goods through the slush.
But with a sad smile, he said "my good man,
The outsourced elves are working as fast as they can."
"But we can't ship it till it's perfect,
No way no how, it just wouldn't be worth it."
"So in its place is a disk for your drive,
and I hope that'll keep your spirits alive."
"But oh you'll love it, it's really a sight-
On it you'll find our promotional website!" |
