COMPUTOR USERS OVER 40
A computer was something on TV From a science fiction show of note 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 a job for the nights 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 keyword was a piano.
Memory was something that you lost with age A CD was a bank account And if you had a 3-inch 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 pocketknife Paste you did with glue A web was a spider's home And a virus was the flu.
I'll stick to my pad and paper And the memory in my head No one's been killed in a computer crash But it makes their face turn red ! |
