Distribute stanzas among participants and choose 3 or 4 people for the chorus/cue (bold letters)

Everybody reads the last two lines

Record it for a podcast

 

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 a girl,

And gig was your middle finger upright.

Now they all mean different things,

And that really mega bytes!

 

Remember when...

 

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 .5" floppy,

You hoped nobody found out!

 

Remember when...

 

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 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.

 

Remember when...

 

Cut you did with scissors,

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 wished they were dead!

 

But Now

 

Home is where you hang your @

The E-mail of the species is deadlier than the mail.

A journey of a thousand sites begins with a single click.

You can't teach a new mouse old clicks.

C:\ is the root of all directories.

Pentium wise; pen and paper foolish.

The modem is the message.

Too many clicks spoil the browse.

 

Now

 

The geek shall inherit the earth.

Don't byte off more than you can view.

Fax is stranger than fiction.

What boots up must come down.

Windows will never cease.

In Gates we trust.

Virtual reality is its own reward.

There's no place like http://www.home.com

 

And finally

 

Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day;

Teach him to use the Net and he won't bother you for weeks.
