My father needed to give me 40 enormous files for me to work with. I don’t have my computer with me, and we’ve been trying to figure out a way to let me access these files.

Dropbox, apps, fttps, websites- every possibility was pondered.

Finally, my father had an idea.

“Look, why don’t we just copy the files onto a CD, and you’ll take it with you?” he said.

“Hah,” I said. “I forgot about that possibility completely.”

Technology is not developing in a very good direction, and we often forget that trusted and true old ways sometimes work better than the constant “improvements.”

    Thumb drives. I keep one in my purse at all times.

      I had mine with me but these files are too huge. My flash drive is old and tiny. I should totally get a new one.
