Guest guest Posted October 18, 1998 Report Share Posted October 18, 1998 Remember when ... A computer was something on TV from a science fiction show--A window was something you had to clean and ram was the cousin of a goat.. Meg was the name of your girlfriend and gig was your middle finger upright Now they all mean different things and that really mega bytes An application was for employment--A program was a TV show A cursor used profanity--A keyboard was a piano Memory was something you lost with age--A CD was a bank account And if you had a 3 inch " floppy you hoped nobody found out--Compress was something you did to the garbage not something you did to a file--And if you unzipped anything in public you'd be in jail for a while--Log on was adding wood to the fire Hard drive was a long trip on the road--A mouse pad was where a mouse lived And a backup happened to your commode--Cut you did with a pocketknife--Paste you did with glue--A web was a spider's home--And a virus was the flu--I guess I'll stick to my pen and paper--And the memory in my head--I hear nobody's been killed in a computer crash But when it happens they wish they were dead ----------------------------------------------- Lyn ~~~~~~~He who laughs,lasts~~~~~~~~ Homepage:http://home.talkcity.com/spiritcir/lynmari/index.html Join the arthritis warriors--http://www.onelist.com/subscribe.cgi/rheumathritis Join-DachsieHeaven:http://www.onelist.com/subscribe.cgi/DachsieHeaven Dachsie B'day Page: http://members.tripod.com/~Lynmari/DACHSHUND Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
