Personal Growth – Page 8 – Type OH! The manual typewriter experience…

A stroll down the yellow brick road…

The Wiz toured the US in 1976… so that must be when I saw it. Not sure anymore why I went but it blew my mind with joy… positive thoughts and fun. They brought it back to TV live and got it right.

I hated the movie which forgot it was all about the child coming of age… Going out into the world to getaway only to discover the value of family that …when one discovers that snowflakes have meaning and that moment when you want time to be your friend… while you still can return Home!

They got it right!

In the future… wonders that come to me!

When I consider the future… I typed on a 103 year old typewriter and forgot how smart computers will become in 50 years; which is why my computer decided to stop communicating with my scanner. I feed it with updates and it’s mood improved!

Good to be thankful…

When all is said and done… just being able to be thankful… is a good thing!

Nothing like a flatbed to bring piece of mind…

I brought out the l911 Royal 1 and time slowed while calm grew like a mushroom in the forest…

Staying on focus…

Once you needed focus just to watch TV… no tape; no disc; no stream to rewind and play a section over. No internet to review the show on… just your one shot as it played (and perhaps months later a re-run)… I was watching “Empire” and found myself reaching for the remote before I remembered it was playing real time. Back in the day… I would give my complete attention to a show; now I can count on instant replay in some form or another.

Internet reviews… not always worth the type

I often check the internet to check my facts, and information on stuff… sometimes I am impressed until I notice “sponsored”… so I check other sites and sometimes real world customer’s aren’t so happy! But I keep hopping the sponsored site was true!!

Rambles aboard the Corona Zephyr Deluxe

It was called a 9lb wonder back in its day (1938), looks great and types okay. I got on board and rambled across a page… the other day.

The more cents you have… the less sense you need to make!

As I listen to well educated/wealthy people run for President of the United States, I start to think logic is not a requirement to be taken seriously. But then I want a piece of the action… when the action should be about peace!

I like to push buttons…. not touch screens!

Sliding my fingers across a screen to move a page… just seems “icky”. Years of removing finger print smears from my eyeglasses… links fingers and glass not in a good way. My new E-reader has no buttons… its all touch… I miss the buttons.

Not real… but real enough!

When I compared autographs against the one on my baseball I could find zero matches with the 44 I checked on ebay… the Hank Aaron ball I’ve hung onto for 4 decades is a fake!
