We have to pull the coffee maker out a little on the cupboard in order to start making coffee, but it probably really would kill him to slide it a few inches back to the wall again.Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18403024177515079403noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3067665701316634699.post-57925279017565424702013-03-25T23:28:18.128-05:002013-03-25T23:28:18.128-05:00I'm also old school, and I'm afraid I will...I'm also old school, and I'm afraid I will remain so. Our typing/shorthand teacher, Miss B. would turn over in her grave if she thought that one of her "girls" would not double space after a period. Her teaching style was wound as tightly as the braids that circled her head, and when she spoke, we listened up. <br /><br />I was also a Bon Ami girl, and I learned to type on the old Royal manual typewriters; but I fell in love with the Selectric. Thanks for the memories and a fun read!<br /><br />E.

And just an FYI, you can always ask your store to carry brands for you, that's how I finally got Chobani in my store! <br /><br />I actually use "Barkeeper Friends" and it works just as good as Bon Ami. And I too will always use two spaces at the end of a sentence.

It's how I learned to type on the typewriter that had a manual return many years ago!!! It's how I typed countless papers through college and grad school. It's how I will continue to type!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12865957509245370427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3067665701316634699.post-47416073961595973182013-03-25T13:34:09.308-05:002013-03-25T13:34:09.308-05:00Hilarious post!
Ugh! double spaces after periods ...Hilarious post!<br /><br />Ugh! double spaces after periods are deadly for graphic designers. We have to painstakingly take them all out because all our programs automatically put space in after periods. I totally understand though because I learned to type like that! Just be aware that somewhere, some poor graphic designer is taking out your double spaces ;) <br /><br />And Jeff, push back the damn Craisins!Tinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13857836351568153432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3067665701316634699.post-1696398426384455582013-03-25T13:25:39.915-05:002013-03-25T13:25:39.915-05:00The craisins cracked me up!
