We thought, and we thought, and as for all our endeavor,
We couldn't come up with a poem that was better
Than this one we posted last year and before
So please join the fun as we post it once more.
---
T'was the days before Christmas, and all through the boards,
The Ferengi were searching for discounts in hoards.
The networks were working, computing distributed,
And more Junior Members logged on and contributed.
In GH, the Intel and AMD minions
Continued to voice their strongest opinions,
Of chipsets and motherboards, and techniques that beckoned,
And promised a few extra cycles per second.
In Video they talked ATI's and Nvidia's,
While dreaming of gaming at frame rates insidious.
And members in Tech Support helped all the noobs
Configure their systems, X-boxes and Cubes.
In Cases & Cooling, the members were thinking.
Their spirits were high, 'cause the temps were a-sinking.
And that's a good thing, because in Overclocking,
The members were racing, and their systems were rocking.
While off in Off Topic, they neffed unabated,
Of so many things not computer-related.
The Mods were all modding in general good cheer,
But still keeping watch should a new troll appear.
When, all of a sudden, and thinking quite quickly,
They posted this Holiday thread with a sticky,
For all of our members from far and from near,
To post their own Holiday message of cheer.
From all of the Mods, our own special toast:
To all of our members, we wish you the most,
Joyous of Holiday fun and good cheer,
And a happy, healthy and prosperous New Year.
So now we've arrived at the end of this verse.
It could have been better. It could have been worse.
From the newest of Juniors to the oldest Elite,
Seasons best to you all, and <Ctl + Alt + Delete>.
