Life before Computers was simpler :

An application was for employment
A program was a TV show
A cursor used profanity
And a keyboard was on a piano!

Memory was something that you lost with age
And a CD was a bank account
And if you had a corrupted disk
It would hurt when you found out!

Compress was what 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
A hard drive was a trip on the road
A mouse pad was where a mouse lived
And a backup happened to the commode!

Cutting, you did with a pocket knife,
Pasting, you did with glue.
The Web was where a spider lived
And a virus was the flu!

It's true but think how many extra words we'd have if we didn't use them. They describe the actions well and who's going to think up all the new words, then there'd be arguments about who's word should be used. (Stops to take breath.) It is true though......................

I grew up with computers, well ever since i was 7 or 8. I rememeber how great it was and how little I knew. Now, at **** near 16 years old, I know stuff that I didnt know existed. Its simply amazing, breath taking.
