ELECTRONIC IMPULSE Red rimmed eyes, three in the morn, I'm on the prowl again. Idiosyncrasies to me, inborn- Reach far beyond the pen. Attentively I scour the screen, My electronic wonderland. Still, where I stop, what I may glean- Is, now, beyond anyone's hand. I make connection, the system calls- For a password - "Entry Denied". I crack the code, protection falls; "Access Granted", system override. I play with your files as I please, I am your Boogeyman. Plant a virus to bring you to your knees, Simply, because I can. You call me "hacker", you call me "crack", Ah, but don't it go much deeper. When you can't get your system back on track- You'll be calling me Grim Reaper. I'll patiently wait with sneer and snicker- Till the day you're back on-line. Knowing that every little screen flicker- Will run cold chills up your spine. Then I'll send you an e-mail bomb, And my point will be proved. You'll never trace where it came from- But you'll see your VISA's been approved. With a thank you note for time and money- Causing your temples to convulse. But, please, know I'm not trying to be funny, It's merely an electronic impulse. |

Uhhh Michael, I liked this piece, but I really didn't LIKE this piece, ya know? Content? Darn thing makes me want to sign off right now ! (laughing nervously) You better promise me you'll behave in here, cause I'm well known for taking sweet revenge on my men ! You'll find yourself tied up somewhere in a dark alley, naked, beaten, & smiling!  ------------------ - poet FemmeFatale "The strongest man in the world is he who stands most alone..." Henrik Ibsen (1826-1906) Norwegian dramatist lyric poet |

Welcome home, old friend... (I'm sure it was purely coincidental your first post was about a programmer lacking in control, right? ) |

I don't like email bombs, I've received 'em, and I know where the bag of tricks is. But you've made the computer mad, it seems, sending electronic impulses everywhere. Good sleight of hand, Data. |
