The Internet Oracle has pondered your question deeply. Your question was:

> Why do the good always die young?

And in response, thus spake the Oracle:

} You weren't listening carefully.  It's "Only D. Goode dyes Young".
} Billy Joel was actually writing an infomercial, with celebrity
} endorsements by Neil Young for famed hair stylist Debi Goode.
}
} You owe the Oracle an uptown cinnamon girl.

The Internet Oracle has pondered your question deeply. Your question was:

> Oh most enlightened Oracle, who would never be stupid enough to use any
> Microsoft product, please tell me:
> Why do Microsoft products suck so bad?

And in response, thus spake the Oracle:

} Physics, humble supplicant, physics.  In particular, the first law of
} thermodynamics.  As you know, this law states that the amount of
} entropy in the universe is always increasing.  Well, a buggy program
} has quite a bit of entropy, but a clean, tight, program with well
} documented code and good structure has very little.
}
} This lead to a conundrum back in the early days of computing: what to
} do with the excess entropy purged from a program during debugging?
} During the 60's and 70's this was not much of a problem, because
} computers were so large and programs so small that the excess entropy
} could just be sent down the power supply to the electric company, and
} they dealt with it, thinking it was simply another energy spike caused
} by running such a monstrous machine.
}
} However, at the end of the '70s, the electric companies caught on, and
} Bill the Cat (whom you might recall from his Doonesbury-sponsored
} presidential bid), working in GE's lab a the time came up with what he
} called an "Aack! Thip."  For simplicity, GE patented it under the title
} Bill gate.  The Bill gate is placed in a customer's control box, and
} prevents any entropy from being sent back to the electric company.
}
} Now the programmers had a problem.  They had to put their high entropy
} code (which was rapidly increasing in volume) somewhere where it would
} not get back into their debugged programs.  So a group of them got
} together, rented some office space in Seattle with a high capacity
} internet connection, and installed several thousand Bill Gates on it,
} so that entropy could go in, but it could no get back out.
}
} This worked like a charm for a couple of years, until the office space
} they had rented hit capacity, and sprung a leak into the operating
} system of IBM's newly released PC.  The rest is history.
}
} So now you know why Microsoft programs suck so bad.  They are sucking
} capacity from your computer to hold all that spare entropy.  This is
} also why Microsoft market share is constantly increasing despite the
} overall suckiness of the programs: entropy must always increase.  If it
} were not for Moore's Law, it would have long ago overwhelmed all
} computers in existence.
}
} You owe the Oracle a three page essay on the eventual Microsoft death
} of the universe, explaining what is to be done about it.

The Internet Oracle has pondered your question deeply. Your question was:

> Wise Oracle, whose advice on matters of the heart is second to none
> (except perhaps Dr. Ruth)...
>
> How can I get the cute girl who lives in the dorm across from mine,
> to go out with me?

And in response, thus spake the Oracle:

} 101 ways to get the girl who lives in the dorm across from yours to go
} out with you
}

} without thorns).

} 43. Tell her you meant that she should date YOU, not the stuffed

The Internet Oracle has pondered your question deeply. Your question was:

> Why cannot I be immortal ?
> I know that immortality is a very difficult thing to reach for
> humanity.  But I am not asking for it for the whole humanity.
> That should be simpler.
> And it would be enough for me if _I_ were immortal.

And in response, thus spake the Oracle:

} Poor human.
}
} You THINK you want to be immortal.  You read books about vampires,
} gods, and other immortal creatures, and say, "I wish I were immortal
} too, because they lead such interesting lives."
}
} But here, let me reach into another future, a future where you
} achieve immortality, while the rest of the world remains mortal.
} I show you this, a page from your diary, dated a mere hundred
} years from now.
}
}     Wednesday, 26 February 2098.
}
}     Elise has left, saying people have mistaken her for my mother
}     once too often.  Once again, a relationship dies because I am
}     still young, and she has succumbed to the ravages of time.
}
}     I turned on the television and found that Microsoft has
}     purchased the last remaining network.  Now it is nothing but
}     American sitcoms, with Microsoft commercials every three
}     minutes.  Perhaps I should introduce myself to Bill Gates;
}     he is only a disembodied brain kept alive by machines and
}     running the world from the Microsoft Network, but at least
}     we two know what it is to be immortal.
}
} Two hundred years from now:
}
}     Monday, 26 February 2198.
}
}     Got up.  Had green NutriPaste for breakfast.  Petted MS-Dog,
}     noticed fur is falling out.  Nothing on television that I
}     haven't seen 1000 times before.  Chose brown paste for lunch.
}     Spent the afternoon deleting spam from mailbox.  Ate yellow
}     paste for dinner.  Kids rode past on hoverbikes, blasting
}     that new Phreenge "music".  Shook fist at them.  They laughed
}     at me.  Whippersnappers; no respect for their elders.
}
} Three hundred years from now:
}
}     Saturday, 26 February 2298.
}
}     I am so bored, I want to die.  Useless, of course -- no matter
}     what I chop off, it grows back.  Tried chopping off head, that
}     was a disaster.  A new head grew back on the body, a new body
}     grew back on the head.  Thought that would be wonderful, but I
}     learned I can't stand to live with myself.  Couldn't play
}     chess with him, since he knew what I was up to.  Couldn't play
}     cards, because we each knew the other was cheating.  And he
}     never refilled the ice tray.
}
} Four hundred years from now:
}
}     Thursday, 26 February 2398.
}
}     Very exciting day today; ate yellow paste instead of green for
}     breakfast.  I shouldn't do that again soon, or the novelty will
}     wear off.
}
} Five hundred years for now:
}
}     Wednesday, 26 February 2498:
}
}     Got up.  Green paste for breakfast.  Yellow paste for lunch.
}     Brown paste for dinner.  Going to bed.
}
} After that, they're all duplicate entries.
}
} The only thing that makes your life interesting is the fact that it's
} so finite.  Eat nothing but bologna sandwiches every day for breakfast,
} lunch and dinner, and that'll give you a good idea of what immortality
} is really like.
}
} You owe the Oracle a cure for ennui.

> Do you take the holy scripture to be like a shipman's hose?

And in response, thus spake the Oracle:

} I can't decide if this question is obscene or not.
}

}
} "Yeah, Orrie?"
}
} "Is this question obscene?"
}
} "Wow, I don't know."
}

}
} "Kendai, is this question obscene?"
}
} "I dunno. Who cares? I do know the answer, though."
}
} [Kendai whispers in Oracle's ear, then slouches out of the room.]
}

} Whatever.
}
} You owe the Oracle a care. Preferably one you could give.

} Hi, I'm Zadoc Nantz, and we'll be back with coverage of The Oracle
} Answering Your Question right after this.
}
}    The Oracle Answering Your Question is brought to you by...
}    S.C. Johnson Wax, makers of new Woodchuck-B-Gon spray.
}    And by Bright Red Siamese Fighting Fish Food, new from Hartz.
}
} Welcome back.  Going out to the Oracle's Temple now, to watch the
} Oracle warming up to answer your question.  Our question-answering
} correspondent Alex Trebek is there.  Alex?
}
}    Thanks, Zadoc.  Now, the Oracle has been warming up for
}    15 minutes now, by answering easier questions, one right
}    after the other.  We have seen several different variations
}    on the "How much wood" question, most of which the Oracle
}    dispensed of quickly with a simple "ZOT!" reply.
}
} Alex, excuse me.  Won't those answers cost him points with the judges?
}
}    They might well do that; however, the question that is
}    to be answered during the actual competition, involving
}    televised coverage of the Olympics, is not the type of
}    question that the Oracle can deal with by using that
}    type of answer.  So we expect a long answer in competition,
}    possibly some type of parody.  Zadoc?
}
} All right, Alex, thank you.  We'll be checking in with you several
} dozen more times throughout the evening.  Now a report from Martha
} Stewart, who has been exploring the site where the Oracle will be
} answering this question.  Martha?
}
}    Thanks, Zadoc.  Bloomington, Indiana, the home of the
}    Oracle's Temple.  Even the name suggests flowers.  I went
}    out in search of some flowers to arrange.
}
}    Well, it looks like this might be a greenhouse...excuse
}    me, sir, where are the flowers?
}    "Flowers?  What?  This is a basketball gym!"
}    Basket ball?
}
}    The nice man explained "basket ball" to me.  I understand
}    it's some sort of game, played by various special interest
}    groups in this part of the country.  But for now, it was
}    off to find some flowers.
}
} And we'll have Part 2 of Martha's report coming up later in this
} broadcast. We'll be right back.
}
}    The Oracle Answering Your Question is brought to you by...
}    Mrs. Smith's pies.  Who do you want to hit in the face with
}    a pie today?
}    And by Thor brand zot staffs.  When they say "I'm Thor,"
}    it must be Thor brand.
}
} Welcome back.  The Oracle doesn't just sit in the Temple answering
} questions all day.  With a look at what the Oracle does when he's not
} answering questions, here's Mark McEwen.
}
}    Just what does an omniscient being do to relax?  He already
}    knows the plot of every movie and TV show, not to mention
