When I think positive thoughts my typewriters respond by working well… when I am negative they skip and stick and refuse to create good type!
For good type… type good!

Celebration is nice…
As I watch, listen and read about the 100th year since Frank Sinatra’s birth… it reminds me that taking the time to remember is a good thing for all and not just the famous.
A type on two types of motel…
High class ambiance vs 50’s tourist trap… camel in the courtyard… or dinosaur and rusting cars… for me at least… two thumbs up for both!
Still road tripping…
When you are all alone on a stretch of Route 66 and the road sign announces Speed Limit 10 MPH… I think…. so I went 10 MPH…
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.
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.
From disaster to repair in just 4 hours
When the water main in front of my house burst, I thought about how my yard was going to be torn up… I thought about “no water”… I thought “why me”… but the city responded quick and I thought “this is the way government should work”!
Sometimes you celebrate quality…
The Mills Brothers sang together for over 50 years… 2,000 recordings… no grand standing… no scandals just harmony and to watch and listen just brings pleasure and fun!
Types on shows…
I started to type… and by the end I found my frustrations stayed on the page. Another good reason to own a typewriter.
3 years 6 months, 748 posts and 1 million hits …
Today TypeOH! received its 1 millionth hit… I did not expect to reach it today but did. In fact I did not expect to reach one million ever! Yet I have… using a 107 year old Underwood with a backspace lever!
The counter I added 3 years ago showed 1,000,169 when I looked this morning.
