Do you remember ... yeah I know it's a song, but I'm not putting any songs here today. I was just wondering what else you remember from long time ago

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 inch floppy
You hoped nobody found out!

Compress was something you did to 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 a 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!

Hi Dan

Glad you had a good laugh

You know what they say about laughter is the best medicine, and my little doggy sometimes wonder why I'm laughing at her ...
cause she looks like a little lion after she surfaces from underneath the cabinet )

Thanks for stopping by dear

Ahhh the youngsters at work were just giving me a hard time today cause I recall our first television. A black and white console nearly too big to fit into our tiny living room.

Heh, heh. 3 and a half inch floppy.

Enjoy the ride. All you take with you when you leave is the experience.

Hi James

Oh don't remind me of those 3 and a half inch floppies. There is so much work that I have done on it and wish I could retrieve it somehow

B&W console ... didn't they have that in the stone-ages? Must be really difficult to catch up

Hi Explourer

Yeah, I too enjoyed going down memory lane. We often forget how things used to be, and when I watch a film, I sometimes catch myself saying "why isn't s/he using a cell phone?" ... and then realize that it was filmed in 1980's What would we do without cell phones now? It's like a security blanket for me 'just in case' I need it.

Thanks for stopping by dear
