Life Before The Computer

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.

And if you had a 3-1/2 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 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!
