A little humour for our times

Another view on "change":


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 my 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.
