JJonas Posted July 13, 2009 Posted July 13, 2009 Thou shalt not plan a lesson around a website without checking it works in school first. If thou dost plan a lesson around a website without checking it works thou must not wail on the IT staff when it fails. The filtering system works in mysterious ways, Do not rely on it to give you access to a web site that worked last week, last night, this morning or at the start of thy lesson.

tmcd35 Posted July 13, 2009 Posted July 13, 2009 We are the your Lord Gods, who brought you out of the land of Abacus, out of the house of filing cabnets; Do not have any other gods before us You shall make yourself an idol, whether in the form of anything that is animal (pengiuns), vegitable (apples, apricots) or minerial (er, windows) You shall bow down to them or worship them; for we your Lord Gods are vengeful Gods, punishing users with BSODs and viri but showing steadfast uptime to the users who love us and keep our commandments You shall not make wrongful use of the username, for the Lords will not acquit anyone who misuses his username Remember the last day of term and keep it holy (buy your techies biscuits!) For the school holidays we shall labour and do all our work But the last day of term is holy to your Lord Gods; you shall not pray upon them to work - you, your staff or your pupils, your male or female admins, or the visitors upon your premises For six weeks the Lords made the network and the file system, the backups and all that is in them, but they rested on the last day of term; therefore the Lords blessed the holy days and expected biscuits upon it. Honor your Technicians and Network Manager, so that your logons may be long in the network that your Lord Gods are giving you. You shall not murder (even a ZX80 can be given productive use) You shall commit adultery (for all operating systems be the Mac, Linux or Windows have their use) You shall not steal (for bandwidth and disk space is for everybodys use - not just your own) You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor (nor still his logon such the you may gain or cause disruption to the network) You shall not covet your neighbor's computer, you shall not covet your neighbor's home space, or mouse, or keyboard, or anything that your neighbor should be working with.

Popular Post jamesb Posted July 13, 2009 Popular Post Posted July 13, 2009 Do we have enough to write our own bible yet? I.On the first day Sysop did the unpacking of the boxes and the construction of the rack. And he called forth low creatures known as PFYs to unpack the machines in rooms, while he worked on the higher task of the Server Cabinet. And the machines were unpacked, and they were plugged in, and lo there was much cursing as only darkness reigned. II. On the second day did Sysop call forth the electrician, who brought light to the School at Sysop's command. And for a time there was rejoicing, and the PFYs were set forth to make arcane drawings of the layout of the holy Network while Sysop installed the Operating System of the Servers. And at the end of the day there was rejoicing, for it was On Schedule. III. On the third day Sysop brought forth the Active Directory, and the PFYs were sent about to bring life into the machines in classrooms and in offices alike. And life was brought to many machines, though some refused to acknowledge the Great Network for a time. IV. On the fourth day Sysop summoned his PFYs, and made them construct an Image in his design. And the PFYs did, and Sysop drank coffee, and all was good. V. On the fifth day Sysop summoned his PFYs again as he deployed the Images they had created perfectly to his design. And as the Images were sent forth he and the PFYs travelled to the land of Pub for a rest. VI. On the sixth day Sysop visited alone and unbidden, confirming that all was working well. VII. On the seventh day Sysop rested. VIII. On the eighth day darkness entered the world and evil and chaos reigned. Sysop and his PFYs have ever since been bound in great battle against this evil, brought forth by the hordes of those they call Users. 7
