The Computer swallowed Grandma

This is a tribute to all the Grandmas and Grandpas who have been fearless and learned to use the computer. Author Unknown.

This appeared in a copy of the "Brats Newsletter" which is not a computer-related journal at all. However, it clearly has significant technical and sociological significance.


THE COMPUTER SWALLOWED GRANDMA.

The Computer swallowed Grandma;
Yes, honestly it's True.
She pressed CONTROL and ENTER,
And disappeared from VIEW.

It devoured her completely,
The thought just made me squirm.
She must have caught a VIRUS, 
Or been eaten by a WORM.

I've searched through my RECYCLE BIN, 
And files of every kind. 
I've even used the INTERNET -
But nothing can I find.

In desperation, I ASKED JEEVES,
My searches to refine;
The reply from him was negative -
Not a thing was found ON-LINE.

So if inside your INBOX,
My Grandma you should see, 
Please "COPY" "SCAN" and "PASTE" her,
And send her back to me :::
