An Engineer's Valentine

Engineering Humor - RF Cafe Take a break from the drudgery with some of these jokes, song parodies, anecdotes and assorted humor that has been collected from friends & from websites across the Internet. This humor is light-hearted and sometimes slightly offensive to the easily-offended, so you are forewarned. I have taken care to censor "humor" with reproductive function innuendo and hateful tirades, so it is all workplace-safe. I have also tried to warn of any links that will result in audio clips so you can take appropriate precautions. Please send any potential candidates for this humor page to the e-mail link above.

As with so many creative content found on the Internet, it is often difficult - if not impossible to learn the true provenance of images and writings. In such instances, I usually reference the website where I found the piece. Whenever the true origin in known with certainty, I am sure to link to its creator as well. Here is a case of the former, found just in time for Valentine's Day 2011.

♥♥♥ An Engineer's Valentine ♥♥♥

I was alone and all was dark
Beneath me and above
My life was full of volts and amps
But not the spark of love

But now that you are here with me
My heart is overjoyed
You turn the whole square of my heart
Into a sinusoid

You load things from my memory
Onto my system's bus
My life was once assembly code
But now it's C++

I love the way you solder things
My circuits you can fix
The voltage across your diode
Is much more than point-six

With your amps and resistors
You have built my integrator
I cannot survive without you
You are my function generator

You have charged my life, increased my gain
And made my math discrete
And now I'll end my poem here
Control, Alt, and Delete

About RF Cafe

RF Cafe began life in 1996 as "RF Tools" in an AOL screen name web space totaling 2 MB. Its primary purpose was to provide me with ready access to commonly needed formulas and reference material while performing my work as an RF system and circuit design engineer. The Internet was still largely an unknown entity at the time and not much was available in the form of WYSIWYG ...
