Starting to feel like I did when I wrote plays…. 40 years ago. Back when I lugged my father’s Underwood around a college campus to type away… I’ve had my moments writing for the spoken voice…
In the mood to type…

An addled Favorit typed tale of something or other…
Some words I heard… or thought were said… but its clear they were some one other’s…said!
I try for a low key day…
Started out typing in all “lower caps” then switched to ALL CAPS… I thought I would just relax and do nothing… but nothing takes some effort.
Just should have gone with the flow and not tried to make my day “easy”. That would have been easier… and without trying I would have had my “low-key day”.
The replacment post… ode to #417
Some times… I read what I type and wonder how the words got on the page. Then I re-type and wonder what was I thinking. Then I type-over and like it enough to tear it into pieces. So I do what I should have done the first time… switch typewriters.
1965 Royal Aristrocrat (Italic Font)
Sometimes the seller discribes the item correctly. The price seems low for what is shown. Then you get what you pay for. All the issues are non-issues and perhaps self-invented to explain away the “great deal”. Sometimes… a typewriter in great condition at a superlow price is just that. A typewriter in great condition at a super low price. And once adjusted the ribbon turned out to be in great shape (the only thing about the typewriter that turned out to be not as described).
Dinosaur in the morning (1972 Remington 24) review
New day, fresh look. I like.
$2.25 Remington 24 (1972) Packed with 4 paper napkins.
Sometimes you get what you paid for and you get more than you expected. Perhaps the $2.25 dollar price was less than the seller was expecting… so they packed it based on worth. 4 paper napkins. I feel great gratitude to the USPS for the delivery of this machine in a manner that allowed it to arrive in a still working condition. Any poor handling at all and this machine would have been in pieces… and not functional in any way. Great JOB U.S. Post Office. Thank you!! to all those who took care with this package that was not even marked fragile… it arrived working (what more could anyone ask).
May memories of smiles… never fade!
A giving mood…
I recall “Labor Day” and staying up to all hours to watch Jerry Lewis and the MDA fund raiser… they have gone seperate ways.  The show is down to 3 hours (I miss the longer version). Still it good that I have linked this time of year to giving and supporting of others.
The Wizard types true…
