I *still* haven't got round to doing my version of "I just called ..."

I just called
To say
Ubuntu

I just called
To say how much it's brown...

etc.

Maybe this is a good thing.

Perhaps you'd better wait until you hear it first!

Ask and ye shall receive:


I want my...I want my CVS...
I want my...I want my CVS...
I want my...I want my CVS...

Now look at them yo-yos thats the way you do it
You check the files into CVS

Software for nothin and chicks for free
Now that aint workin thats the way you do it
Lemme tell ya them guys aint dumb
Maybe get a blister on your little finger
Maybe get a blister on your thumb

We gotta program Visual Basic
Custom building Active X Controls
We check out from our Visual SourceSafe
We gotta work on SQL Server

See the little faggot with the long hair and the sandles
Yeah buddy thats his own beard
That little faggot got his own Dell server
That little faggot hes too damn weird

We gotta program Visual Basic
Custom building Active X Controls
We check out from our Visual SourceSafe
We gotta work on SQL Server

I shoulda learned to program Python
I shoulda learned to program Lisp
Look at that hacker, he got it logging in the tracker
Man we could have some bugs
And hes up there, whats that? hawaiian pizzas?
Bangin on the keyboard like a chimpanzee
That aint workin thats the way you do it
Get your software for nothin get your chicks for free

We gotta program Visual Basic
Custom building Active X Controls
We check out from our Visual SourceSafe
We gotta work on SQL Server

Now that aint workin thats the way you do it
You check the files into CVS
That aint workin thats the way you do it
Software for nothin and your chicks for free
Software for nothin and chicks for free

A release day
To celebrate
A chocolate coloured distro here to give away
The first of spring
A song to sing
It's not just another distribution day

No source to build
No package hell
Though April's release day became the month of June
But what it is, is something true
Made up of this one word that I must say to you

I just called to say Ubuntu
I just called to say how much I share
I just called to say Ubuntu
And I mean it from the bottom of my heart

nVidia
No real driver
LEDs glow to light one late re-install night
No MP3s
No Flash for me
No QuickTime here from this CD from southern skies

All GPL
Compatible
I'm giving thanks to all the freedom that it brings
And what it is, though old so new
To fill your heart like no one word could ever do

I just called to say Ubuntu
I just called to say how much I share, I do
I just called to say Ubuntu
And I mean it from the bottom of my heart

I just called to say Ubuntu
I just called to say how much I share, I do
I just called to say Ubuntu
And I mean it from the bottom of my heart, of my heart,
of my heart

I just called to say Ubuntu
I just called to say how much I share, I do
I just called to say Ubuntu
And I mean it from the bottom of my heart, of my heart,
baby of my heart


Hugs,

Jen, who should really be doing something more constructive.

[CanadianLinuxNerd]

ROFLMAO Jen you truly are the comedy queen!!!!!

[No']

why not having a lugradio *concert* with songs like that at LRL'07?

[Jetlag]

For CanadianLinuxNerd:

The power of FUD is a curious thing
Make a one man weep, make another man sing
Change a bug to a proper feature
More than a feeling thats the power of FUD

Sparks into diamonds, dirt to cream
Better, securer than the boss could dream
Make a bad one good, make a wrong one right
Power of FUD that keeps them home at night

You just need money, and some fame
Just need a credit card to ride this train
Its strong and its sudden and its cruel sometimes
And it might just save your life
Thats the power of FUD
Thats the power of FUD

First time they hear it, it might make them sad
Next time they hear it, it might make them mad
But you'll be glad, Ballmer, when you've found
That's the power makes the world go round

You just need money, and some fame
Just need a credit card to ride this train
Its strong and its sudden and its cruel sometimes
And it might just save your life

They say that all business is fair
Yeah, but you dont care
But you know what to do
When they get hold of you
And with a little help from above
You feel the power of FUD
You feel the power of FUD
Can you feel it ?
Hmmm

It just takes money, and it just takes fame
Just need a credit card to ride this train
Tougher than diamonds and stronger than steel
They wont feel nothin till they feel
they feel the power, just the power of FUD
Thats the power, thats the power of FUD
They feel the power of FUD
They feel the power of FUD
Feel the power of FUD


Hugs,

Jen

It seems #lr are determined to keep me busy this evening. This was from a suggestion by Treenaks:

In the town where I was born,
Lived a man who sold PCs,
And he told us of his life,
In the land of subroutines,

So we packed away our Sun,
And we bought a new machine,
And we lived beneath the .WAVs,
In our Windows subroutine,

We all live in a Windows subroutine,
a Windows subroutine, Windows subroutine,
We all live in a Windows subroutine,
Windows subroutine, Windows subroutine,

And our friends use Ubuntu,
Many more of them Fedora Core,
While our comp begins to die.

(Trumpets play "Windows XP Startup.wav")

We all live in a Windows subroutine,
a Windows subroutine, Windows subroutine,
We all live in a Windows subroutine,
Windows subroutine, Windows subroutine,

As they live a life of ease,
And none of us has what we need (has what we need)
Screen of blue (screen of blue) on our machine (our machine)
In our Windows (in our Windows) subroutine (subroutine. Blaha)

We all live in a Windows subroutine,
a Windows subroutine, Windows subroutine,
We all live in a Windows subroutine,
Windows subroutine, Windows subroutine,

We all live in a Windows subroutine,
a Windows subroutine, Windows subroutine,



Hugs,

Jen, who is beginning to feel all filked out.

All very funny indeed!

I feel I must now respond with a variation on Gwen Stefani's "What You Waiting For?" which I call "Overclock You Now?"

What an amazing chip
What a family
How did the hertz go by
Now it's only me

Tick-tock, tick-tock
Tick-tock, tick-tock
Tick-tock, tick-tock
Tick-tock, tick-tock
La, la, la, la, la, la, la (ah, ah, ah, ah, ah)

Like a microprocessor, you're stupidly fast
A scary conversation, assembler gives me the creeps
What if they say you ain't a climber?
Naturally, I'm worried if I do it alone
My processor will blow
No IRC for me tonight
Why not chance your C-P-U?
Oh, ah, oh

Over-clocking
Over-clocking
Over-clocking
Over-clocking
Over-clocking, woah!

Over-clocking
Over-clocking
Over-clocking
Over-clocking
Over-clocking, woah!

Tick-tock, tick-tock
Tick-tock, tick-tock
Why not chance your C-P-U?

Like a clock cycle, you're repeating yourself
You know it all by heart
Why are you processing today?
Born to blossom, bloom to perish
Your moment will run out
Cause of your low memory
I know it's so messed up, how your L2 cache is so small (two meg!)
Life is short, with S-S-E
Oh, ah, oh

(Uh-huh, hu-huh)
Look at your clock now
You're still a super hot dual core
You got your billion-dollar template
And they're all waiting for your clock speed

Over-clocking
Over-clocking
Over-clocking
Over-clocking
Over-clocking, no!

Over-clocking
Over-clocking
Over-clocking
Over-clocking
Over-clocking, no!

I can't wait to go back into Japan
Get me lots of brand new fans
Zalman, Akasa
Your fan noise reduction
Damn, your cables really work

Go

Look at your clock now
You're still a super hot dual core
You got your billion-dollar template
And they're all waiting for your clock speed

Over-clocking
Over-clocking
Over-clocking
Over-clocking
Over-clocking, woah!

Over-clocking
Over-clocking
Over-clocking
Over-clocking
Over-clocking, woah!

Over-clocking, woah!
Over-clocking, woah!

(What you waiting for)
Why not chance your C-P-U?
Why not chance your C-P-U?

Over-clock it now
Over-clock it now

(What you waiting for)
Why not chance your C-P-U?
Why not chance your C-P-U?

I remember the Friday night party at LRL'06, when neuro was singing "rock the taksbar" instead of "rock the casbah" (we miss Strummer so much), or "we need bandwidth" instead of "we need a hero".

I've rarely laughed so much in my life.
