The Old Days

I m reminded of a simpler time When televisions were black and white and Messages were written down IM was used as a pronoun When a website was where a spider lived And a byte was what a dog would give The net was something to play volleyball And a cell had padded walls. A mouse pad was a rodents house and phishing meant you were catching trout. A boot was something that you wore outside and an old car was your hard drive. Hardware meant a hammer place Memory was your brain's domain Software was something named Tupper And Spam was what you had for supper. Windows were things that let the air come in and only hospitals had operating systems. Program was something on your old tv And no one had anything named a pc Yes these days many things have changed But one thing remains the same When our kids begin to get older These words will be gone and then they'll start over!
