Thread Name: Rawhide Parody (Reload!)
Subject: Rawhide Parody (Reload!)
Found this on the internet today. Anyone know who wrote it? To add to the other computer parodies in the DT...

SUNG TO THE TUNE OF RAWHIDE !

Loading, loading, loading,
Damn this Java coding,
Feeling of foreboding, Reload!

The Applet says it's running,
And that big gray block is stunning,
But the screen remains as blank as my mind

Netscape crash, Boot 'em up!
Net goes down, Dial back!
Logging on, Still off-line!
Reload!
Try it now, Still not up!
Netscape crashed, What, again?
Boot it up, Log it in,
Reload!

Tighten, tweaking', smoothen,
They say the codes improvin',
So how come I'm still usin' "reload"?

I'm tired of all this waitin',
Just give me .gif animation,
This code is only good for wasting time,

The applet says it's running,
And gray block is quite stunning,
But the screen remains as blank as my mind,

(Midi solo)
beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep,
beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep,
beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep,
beep, beep,
beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep,
beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep,
beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep,
beep, beep,

Netscape crash, Boot 'em up!
Net goes down, Dial back!
Logging on, Still off-line!
Reload!

Try it now, Still not up!
Netscape crashed, What, again?
Boot it up, Log it in,
Reload! Reload!

It reminds me of trying to get into the Mudcat chat room.
