Remember When....
A COMPUTER was something on TV from a science fiction show
A WINDOW was something you hated to clean
and RAM was the cousin of a goat...
MEG was the name of my 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 that you lost with age
A CD was a bank account
And if you had a 3 1/2 " FLOPPY
You hoped nobody found out
COMPRESS was something you did with 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 wish they were dead
