From Jargon File (4.2.0, 31 JAN 2000) [jargon]:
   JCL /J-C-L/ n.   1. IBM's supremely {rude} Job Control Language.
   JCL is the script language used to control the execution of
   programs in IBM's batch systems.   JCL has a very {fascist} syntax,
   and some versions will, for example, {barf} if two spaces appear
   where it expects one.   Most programmers confronted with JCL simply
   copy a working file (or card deck), changing the file names.
   Someone who actually understands and generates unique JCL is
   regarded with the mixed respect one gives to someone who memorizes
   the phone book.   It is reported that hackers at IBM itself sometimes
   sing "Who's the breeder of the crud that mangles you and me?   I-B-M,
   J-C-L, M-o-u-s-e" to the tune of the "Mickey Mouse Club" theme to
   express their opinion of the beast.   2. A comparative for any very
   {rude} software that a hacker is expected to use.   "That's as bad as
   JCL."   As with {COBOL}, JCL is often used as an archetype of

From Jargon File (4.2.0, 31 JAN 2000) [jargon]:
   jello n.   [Usenet: by analogy with {spam}] A message that is
   both excessively cross-posted and too frequently posted, as opposed
   to {spam} (which is merely too frequently posted) or {velveeta}
   (which is merely excessively cross-posted).   This term is widely
   recognized but not commonly used; most people refer to both kinds of
   abuse or their combination as spam.

      mountain-goat, the wife of Heber the Kenite (Judg. 4:17-22).
      When the Canaanites were defeated by Barak, Sisera, the captain
      of Jabin's army, fled and sought refuge with the friendly tribe
      of Heber, beneath the oaks of Zaanaim. As he drew near, Jael
      invited him to enter her tent. He did so, and as he lay wearied
      on the floor he fell into a deep sleep. She then took in her
      left hand one of the great wooden pins ("nail") which fastened
      down the cords of the tent, and in her right hand the mallet, or
      "hammer," used for driving it into the ground, and stealthily
      approaching her sleeping guest, with one well-directed blow
      drove the nail through his temples into the earth (Judg. 5:27).
      She then led Barak, who was in pursuit, into her tent, and
      boastfully showed him what she had done. (See {SISERA}; {DEBORAH}.)
