Remember When ... ?
A computer was something on T.V. 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 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 1/2" floppy you hoped that 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 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 were dead!!

I mis-read the title. I thought it said "Old School Porn"
