Brought out my problem children for some fun in the sun. They type so they work. One day I will get them working well… for now its just fun to press their keys.
The embers still glow… thoughts from 40 years ago.
I have read things I wrote over 40 years ago… the thoughts are not very mature or insightfull. Sill there was a fire in my soul then. And the embers still glow…
What is a fake “Peace Medal” worth?
The answer depends of course on who owns it. Even if it did not come from the President… is not silver… or even owned by someone famous. “Friendship and Peace” will always hold its value for some.
Review: The Visual (virtual) Typewriter
Software that turns your computer screen/keyboard into a working Remington Portable with sound and motion called the Visual Typewriter… Want to work at your typewriter but not have speel check… not be able to change your mistakes with ease? Give the visual typewriter a try.
Gabriele Adler 35… no she’s 34 (1979)
Who would have thought I would run across a Triumph-Adler GABRIELE 35  (that’s what the T-A stamped on her rear stands for) this side of the Ocean. Since her front was uncovered (the Adler name strip missing) she looked like a lost soul of little value.  Not sure when she arrived in America… but she has a new life with Typeoh.
