    Exclamation 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 your 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 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 ..................

    Very good, i thought a gig was something you go to, to see a band.


    My auctions, good prices, fair p&p.

    Laughing is good exercise, it's like jogging on the inside.

    It must be my age because I had a 5 1/4" floppy (who remembers them?). Not that I'm boasting or anything......lol
