The GP2x Story
It was on a cold and dreary night,
When an innocent child had a terrible fright,
For the ‘Firmware Updating’ message appeared,
This was what he had always feared,
That his GP2x would be a paper weight,
Oh what a cruel and terrible fate,
But wait there was once a rumour of a cable,
And it is said in that mystical fable,
That there was once a coder called Squidge,
With a house in the depths of the deepest ridge,
The boy wondered where this place could be,
He just wanted his GP2x to be free,
Free of its ball and chain,
Only a J-TAG could end this pain,
So our protagonist boarded an aircraft,
Then he continued to travel by raft,
No obstacle would starve him of the goal he did seek,
Even when the outlook seemed bleak,
His destination was the land of the free,
For that is where that ridge would be,
The Grand Canyon is the ridges location,
The boy’s mouth widened in anticipation,
Closer and closer his target became,
His surroundings all looked exactly the same,
There, he could see it, just out of sight,
He peddled his bike with all of his might,
When the boy reached the great canyon’s edge,
He stamped into the ground a small wooden wedge,
He then set up all his equipment and rope,
All that was left for him was hope,
He then jumped into the rift,
His body began to wriggle and drift,
Not far of his target his bungee rope snapped,
There, just above the ground, upside down he flapped,
He then cut his cord to let himself down,
And then, head first, he impacted the ground,
This was the house that he had to find,
He just hoped that he did not go blind,
He turned the handle to open the door,
Then what did he find left on the floor,
A note which may hold some wonderful key,
‘Ha ha you got tricked now come visit me’,
This note bore a wonderful name,
For Craig is the top of the GP2x game,
Lo and behold this ending is funny,
The motto, send Craig your GP2x’s and all of your money.
