I know what it is. I was born in 64. If you really call yourself a Skier, then you would only think of STP as a gear dump site...

OOOOO.  I get it.  I even understand Lynn's Well Done comment.  Properly humiliated I am -- and I graduated from high school in '66.

OK, reading matter for Phil to help with his boredom.

Before Computers
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 a floppy disk was something
Terribly wrong in your back.

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 awhile!

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
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!
