Cowboys

Rambling Kid Realitsm

Oh give me a home where the VMs roamand the techs and administrators play!Where seldom is heard a change management wordand the skies are cloudy all day!

How often at night in the cubicles brightWith the light of the monitors dualHave I sat there amazed and asked as I gazedIf their glory exceeds that of jewels

Home, home on the rangeWhere the techs and administrators play!Where seldom is heard an I-T-I-L wordand the skies are cloudy all day!

Then give me a LAN where the striped-RAID SANFlows leisurely in data streamsWhere the virtual machine goes gliding unseenLike a maid in a Warcraft dream

Oh I would not exchange my old home on the rangeWhere the techs and administrators play! Where never is heard a procedural wordand the skies are cloudy all day!
