How did people live without the internet? What did a typical day look like? How did people learn new information?

Men rush to sate their love, or lurk in ambush, knee-deep in crap, to catch <br>Their pip which spawns; the seed <br>Begins to tame the savage breast, as he, in turn, is tamed by love of home <br>And civic duties; neighbour <br>Rubs against neighbour, warming both; the children are the tie that binds, <br>And men learn to put up with love, <br>Domestic cares, the worries of a menage, the raucous babel of a brood, <br>The frail dear blossom of a daughter, <br>Worry that gnaws and saps the strength of her unhappy mother, and the boy, <br>With all the hardships of his childhood.
