The computer age

I've been ill for a couple of days - well, very ill as opposed to my usual ill - and was going to do a post on health but decided that would be too boring. Decided instead to see if I could get some funnies off the web about being past one's ell by date. Apart from the suggestion that I might want to consider giving up buying Long-Life Milk there didn't seem to be much so I settled for some ideas about the modern computer age instead.
