Humor - 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 my girlfriend
And gig was your middle finger upright
Now they all mean something different
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 a flu
I guess I'll stick to my pad and paper
And the memory in my head
I hear nobody's killed in a computer crash
But when it happens they wish they were dead
