I will  touch type my next post. I will not go back to correct. I want to see if I make any errors and if so how many.

I.,m ashamed to say it but I am a fairly good touch typist. Computers have a lot to answer for because of the backspace and delete bustons. Back in the days where you had to learn to touch type on thsoe osld machines, you damn near would lose a findger if you fucked up. Plus, it was pretty awful to undo you r mistakes with the typing eraser, or worse still if you hav capon copries to make. Then you really would have to start all over again, because no eraser could fix the carbon copies fuck ups.

OK, maybe I am not so good a typist.  :P But I applied myself to the above post and committed to using no delete or backspace button. Plus it's cold, maybe my fingers aren't warmed up enough!

Oh, OK. Well, at least you tried. I don't even attempt it, I use 2 fingers and look at the keyboard the whole time! :laugh:

WTF are you ashamed of that for? Why would be you be ashamed of having mastered a skill that required practice and discipline to acquire?

BTW, I was looking @ my keyboard all the time I was typing this. Old habits die hard.

That's very sweet. I think it pisses me off that I can type reasonably well and fast. I blame my Mother. She made me do typing as a subject for 2 years, when what I really wanted to do was Technical Drawing, so I could become an architect. When I see people struggle to type I do feel thankful and I ended up working in construction anyway. But yeah, I think she still should have let me do Technical Drawing, regardless.

Like she should have let me learn the drums. Instead I had to join the choir.
