DO YOU REMEMBER WHEN?
~~OR~~
LIFE BEFORE COMPUTERS
<BGSOUND SRC="images/ReelinInTheYears.mid" LOOP="-1">
A computer was something on TV
in a science fiction show...
A window was something you hated to clean
And a ram was the cousin of a goat.
Meg was the name of your girlfriend,
And gig was your job that night...
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,
And a keyboard was a still a piano.
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 awhile.
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 pocket knife
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 pad and paper
And the memory in my head...
I hear nobody's been killed in a computer crash
But, when it happens...
They just WISH that they were dead!
