The "date modified" on the file was February 2005. I wish I remembered the origins of this list, all I know for sure is that I compiled myself it for fun back in college. Who knew there would one day be a web site for doing exactly that (only better)?

Love it. A pre-Wordie Wordie list. Makes you want to go back and dig through that old pile of floppies....
No, not really.

Floppies!!! Did the 5" ones actually flop? I don't quite remember....

In the future, there will be a web site for doing every possible exact task.
Oh wait...

They totally flopped!
More of a flap, really. I remember twiddling with them a lot.

Oh yeah, they were floppy. And if you flopped them too much, they retaliated by not ever working again.

I had more fun playing with the little latch on the floppy drive door, than the floppy itself. Later I would take a liking to spinning CDs around my index finger.

Right! They had a latch to keep them from escaping! Ah, the memories....

Did you ever take the little disc out of the floppy and play with it? That was fun, but oh-so-against the rules...

Yes! That was the floppiest part! I also had a bad habit of bouncing mouse trackballs around the house.

Ouch. Those things hurt. And they always seemed to have been made of some carcinogenic material.
