Looking for good!
I walked outside and passed by a weed… then I noticed a flower and decided I would spend the day on the good! Nice thoughts, good people and nice things.
Stars in my eyes…
The good news/bad news… local news reports over 50 folks received IRS final notice calls in my area…
Better news, I went out side and watch the stars come out… in the low light nothing at first; then as the sky’s darken a spot appears… then another “stars”… free fun and wonder…
One day my chips will come…
Some times I just want a Jay’s… (bet you can’t eat just one)… shipping is high but a couple of years go by and I buy. This week my order was damaged in transit. This morning I was told I would get a refund and my order re-sent for free. Some-times good does come when you least expect…
1912 Monarch Visible… shows its way!
I like the look… I love its feel… at 104 it makes my day great!!
The Typewriter Revolution arrived today… A Review!!
As soon as I saw the words “The art of Screwing” on page 152)Â I knew I had to get out my flatbed… and take a picture with it! Richard Polt’s new book “The Typewriter Revolution” had me at “The”!
Just looking to laugh…
I hear folks are upset about the new Muppet show… questions about how to explain the relationship between a frog and a pig… a question I am sure was big on our minds in the 70’s! Or back to the 60’s… that moose and squirrel, or that dog Peabody and his “boy” Sherman… as a kid I did not care! I only wanted to laugh… How did we become so serious!
Underwood charms…
Been in the mood to type on my Underwood’s… for better or worse my fingers feel right on the keys of an Underwood 5!
Remounted… Demountable…. excellent!
I needed to reverse the ribbon on my Demountable… which meant lifting up and taking off the frame; I moved something a fraction of a inch and the 87 year Demountable acts like a teenager… it is quick… has a light touch… wow!!!
More will than skill… Part two: 2015 Bike Ride Across Iowa
Seven days in a row… brothers using skate boards passed me on the route across Iowa. Even the guy pulling a canoe was ahead of me five days… the man on the tandem bike that had the skeleton in the rear seat passed me twice… but I still won!
