Life before the computer!!

An application was for employment
A program was a t.v. show
A cursor used profanity
A keyboard was a piano!

Memory was something that you lost with age
A CD was a bank account
And if you had a 3 ½ floppy, you hoped nobody found
out!

Compress was something you did to 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 a 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 quess I will 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 wish they were dead!

HAPPY Y2K TO YOU ALL!
