PLAYHOUSE

The Playhouse construction is well on its way. They are about to start painting the interior. The stairs need to be constructed yet and same with the windows. Tim figures he has all the materials there to complete the Playhouse. He also figures it is ahead of last year.

It's that time of year again. We have to start thinking about the Playhouse again. Dan Sinasac has kindly offered to help will be assisting with the playhouse scheduling this year. If anyone has any suggestions on new place's to take the Playhouse, please let Dan or myself know.

"A Poem for Those Over 30"

A computer was something on TV
From a science fiction show of note
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 a job for the nights
Now they all mean different things
And that really mega bites.
An application was for employment
A program was a TV show
A curser 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 inch 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 back up 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'll wish they were dead.
