Validation Funnies

Can’t remember where I came across this - but I chuckled, as only a developer could:

Our W3C, which art on the net:
Hallowed be thy markup.
Thy workingdrafts come.
Thy Specs be done
in Mozilla as they are in Opera.
Give us this day our daily XHTML,
and forgive us our hacks and workarounds,
as we forgive all tablebased designers.
And lead us not to invalid code
but deliver us from IE5.

Amen.
