And just in case you weren't feeling too old today, this will certainly change things.

· The people starting university in February across the nation were born in 1987.
· They are too young to remember the space shuttle blowing up.
· Their lifetime has always included AIDS.
· Bottle caps have always been screw-off and plastic.
· The CD was introduced the year they were born.
· They have always had an answering machine.
· They have always had email and the Internet.
· They cannot fathom not having a remote control.
· Popcorn has always been cooked in the microwave.
· They can't imagine what hard contact lenses are.
· They do not care who shot J. R. and have no idea who J. R. even was.
· They don't have a clue how to use a typewriter.
. And this text is big so you can read it.

That is good, heres one about the past for you guys.....

Memory was something you lost with age
An application was for employment
A program was a TV show
A cursor used profanity



A keyboard was a piano
A web was a spider's home
A virus was the flu
A CD was a bank account



A hard drive was a long trip on the road
A mouse pad was where a mouse lived



And if you had a 3 inch floppy . .



. . . you just hoped nobody ever found out!
