Keyboards and Fingers

It seems I've been sitting at keys forever, and, in fact, it has been about 46 years. It started with an Underwood manual typewriter, progressed through electric and electronic typewriters, electronic typesetting machines, and into computer keyboards.

A little click here, a little click there . . .

In case you haven’t discovered these Internet charity donation sites, they have all been around for more than a year and are worthwhile. One click a day is what’s requested and allowed.

If You've Got It, Flaunt (No, Sell) It!

Woo Hoo!

It worked! After much messing around with Ctrl-ALT-DEL, my computer finally ran the thorough ScanDisk. It found a ton of errors and problems and (hopefully) fixed them all.
