The Paper Clip 17.Sep.1999
A spreadsheet with cells numerous
Can end up quite ridiculous
Depends on what you put inside
Those cells that solve what you decide
For them to check and calculate
While you sit down and have a break
The best 'bout spreadsheets is the time
When macros run and all is fine
However, some don't do as asked
And figure out a different task
Soon the nonsense shows its face
And leaves you to repair with grace
That none will see the clip appearing
Which helps you out and sends you reeling
Through forests full of IFs and THENs
Those functions can be logic friends
You put them into certain order
And suddenly will jump the border
It's your turn now to smile and say:
You: paper clip - can go away!
