THE GOOD OL' DAYS

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 a girlfriend, and gig was when a band played
at night. Now they all mean different things, and that
really mega bytes.



An application was for employment and a program was a
TV show. A cursor used profanity and a keyboard was
a piano. 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 a while.



Memory was something that you lost with age. A CD was
a bank account. A floppy disk was something terribly
wrong in yourback. Log was adding wood to the fire,
hard drive was a long trip on the road. A mouse pad
was where a mouse lived, and backup happened to your
commode. Cut you did with a pocket knife and 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!

and here's a good tongue twister I found also:
I slit the sheet, the sheet I slit, and on the slitted sheet I sit.
