Questions on Stream Closed

Question

Hi,
I was just testing on this sequence of reopening the input stream. Im having an error when trying to read again to the System.in after I've closed in another function. Please advise what could be the cause of it. Here's the code and output. Thanks.
import java.io.InputStreamReader;
import java.io.IOException;
public class Streams{
    public static void main(String[] args){
        Streams s = new Streams();
        s.closeOne();
        s.closeTwo();
    public void closeOne(){
        InputStreamReader ir = new InputStreamReader(System.in);
        try{
            ir.read();
            ir.close();
        }catch(IOException io){}
    public void closeTwo(){
        InputStreamReader ir = new InputStreamReader(System.in);
        try{
            ir.read();
            ir.close();
        }catch(IOException ioe){ ioe.printStackTrace(); }

Oh come on. How mch more clearer can the error
message be? Can you walk through a door after ithas
been closed?May I interest you in some Midol?Bite me!I'm not big on seafood.
I just don't think it's that bad a question.
