Well, hopefully he is busy hitting the english grammer books, and ain't no mo lernin propr spelin round heres.

I laugh when I see schools offer what used to be typing class - now I think they call it keyboarding. As if kids these days won't be expert computer typists on their own.

They don't teach typing, as most kids today don't use but about 4 letters anyway! "U", "R" ,"2","BFF",,,,,,,,,,,,,um lets see, what other ones???

I took it in HS, thinking sophmore year. I was near top in my class at 60 WPM with only 1 mistake. Not quite as limber as I once was, but better then most that peck with two fingers. I used to marvel when they would show some guy doing near 100 wpm on an old MANUAL machine!!!! I learned on an IBM Selectric.

I took typing every year starting in sixth grade cause of failing miserably in penmanship class. To this day I cannot write and read it unless printing and then it is so small it's difficult at best. Lot of the "boys" made fun of me taking typing which was for "girls".

Look how times have changed.

I learned on a manual - once you got over like 30wpm with no mistakes, you got to go for a week and sit on the side of the room and use one of the four SPECIAL electric IBM's.

I think it was my sophomore year as well that I took typing. I had a crazy friend that carried around a huge four foot long duffle bag. No one really knew what he kept in there. He got to where every few days he would steal a couple typing books and take them home. By the end of the year, the teacher got so mad that she offered a reward to anyone who would tell her who had been taking the books. No one turned him in, so she said that she would pay $10.00 for each book she got back and no one would get punished - you could return them no questions asked.

The next day we walked into class and he had a stack almost up to the ceiling of typing books. He thought he hit paydirt and was sitting there with a shit-eating grin on his face. She just cackled and grabbed him by the hair with one hand and the nearest ear with the other and literally drug him to the principal's office - she told us all that in school you are there to learn your lessons, and the lesson of the day was not to steal or to be stupid enough to think you won't get in trouble when you do steal.

:whistling: i know your talkin about me cause you said lopsided trucks which means u models.

Yup I was and I admit to the guilt impressed upon me. Please place the forgiveness found within your heart on my sorry dumb ass.

I still ain't seen no video of this thing running and am getting anxious. When I show up to darken your doorstep and drive this truck I don't want to rely on booster cables to get it running. Me an you gonna have a "heart to heart" talk before munchin down double halepeno tacos wrapped in crushed nacho cheese "Dorito's" totilla chips. "Momma's" own recipe this one is and it b good for "U".

I may be slow, but i'll get there eventually.

I still have room to corrupt (I mean educate) my young nephews. I need to get a grasp upon the current game plan before branching out.......

Nephews Ben, and Vin, are both doing a great job so far.

Sounds tempting and I appreciate the offer, but I'm going to "fiddle-about" with my Uncle Ernie this weekend. I just wish I knew what that meant.
