Seeing the "Rudolph" and "Money for Nothing" parodies, and recalling Avi's
"Two Live Clue" idea... I thought I'd "me too" a little.  Improvements are
welcome. :-)

Sung to to tune of "One":



I don't know what's happening
Can't install routes from my upstream
'show ip route' looks obscene
This terrible outage stops me

Now that bad routes have hosed me
I need to reset all BGP
There's not much left of my RIB
Nobody is feeling sane now

	Hold my breath as I wish for death
	Oh, please God, wake me

Back in the NOC it's much too real
In come calls that I must field
But can't look forward to reveal
Look to the time when I'll rest

Fed through the peer on ether0/3
Just a nightmare at the MAE
Tied to someone with bad BGP
Cut this peer off from me

	Hold my breath as I wish for death
	Oh, please God, wake me

	Now the 'net is gone, I'm just One
	Oh, God help me
	Hold my breath as I wish for death
	Oh, please God, help me

Outage
Angering me
All that I see
'Host unreachable'
I cannot laugh
I cannot cry
Trapped at the console
CLI my holding cell

Bad routes
Have screwed up my sync
Screwed up my peers
Screwed up my network
Screwed up my night
Screwed up my day
Screwed up my mind
Left me with life in Hell



Eddy

P.S. -- Could somebody please kindly point me to the "isp-bs" list which I
recall an inet-access'er creating? :-)
