I'm so old I Remember when:

[EmmaDonovan]

And typing papers on a manual typewriter.

We were taught to write each main point in your paper on a 3x5 card, then put the cards into the order you wanted to develop them in your paper, then type the paper from the order of the cards.

I remember sitting on the floor in my bedroom with 3x5 cards laid out in a grid, organizing and re-ordering them. I'd retrieve the heavy black typewriter case from my father's office and carry it back to my bedroom, open it on the floor, and sit on the floor and type my paper there.

3x5 cards used to be a standard school supply. We used them for writing papers, vocabulary quizzes, test questions, etc.

I kept my cards in labeled plastic boxes. Sometimes I ended up with several boxes for each class, especially languages classes that had lots of vocabulary words.

I was taught the exact same way, and still teach it to my high school students. It's the easiest way to organize large amounts of information.

Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall.
Humpty Dumpty had a great fall.
All the king’s horses and all the king’s men
couldn’t put Humpty together again.

Oh, man, I love to hear Jim Nabors (Gomer Pyle) sing.

If I Never Laugh Again
and
Momma, A Rainbow

The latter makes me just about cry.

The episode of Andy Griffith where he joins The Marines always cracks me up because he songs the Marines anthem in his terrible Gomer voice. When I know he has an incredible singing voice
