Life Before Technology

Posted by Lifecruiser in Odditys

For us OLD people who still remember how it was:

- 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 broken disk, it would hurt when you found out!
- Compress was something you did to garbage, not some- thing you did to a file!
- If you unzipped anything in public you would be in jail for a while!
- 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.
- Cut you did with a pocket knife.
- Paste you did with glue.
- A web was a spiders home.
- And a virus was the flu!

    You can never be too old. If you get very old, you become childish again and then next stage is to heaven…. *smiling big*

    Mandy:
    Ahh, I wish there was some kind of memory card to put in somewhere in my head, how practical that would be!!! I need a lot of them, it would be full…. (because I can not keep anything in my head so it have to be on the card!)
