I looked quite a bit to make sure this wasn't posted, but if I missed it I apologize for the repeat.

Music and words to "The day the computers died" at:

http://www.freeyellow.com:8080/members5/8002000bug/

My favorite line goes something like,

"I can't remeber if I whined On new years eve of 99 But something hit my big behind The day the compouters died"

"So bye bye ................"

Thanks... I just posted it yesterday... the post is entitled, "If you liked 'It's The Code' you'll love this..." By the way... Whoever laid the music on that page... Great idea... If you want, a clearer score can be had at http://www.freeyellow.com/members5/8002000bug/apie.mid Also... if you can change the html to have
at the end of each line, it might look more like a poem... Thanks everyone...

I wrote "have "br" line break... I put the < symbols around them, and it came out invisible... :)

I plead guilty. I took the music and lyrics, added the < br > and posted it over there a couple of hours ago. Such talent needed to be shared with the GIs over there who don't frequent this forum.

You can see it at this spot

I hope you don't mind Duane; you got full credit.

I loved it! btw, how did you get the symbols > and < to appear with br in the middle... I will try it now, but I think it will be invisible.. here goes
< br >

Oddly enough, Weird Al Yankovic just released a new parody combining American Pie and the new Star Wars movie:

The Saga Begins

Enjoy!
