Typewriter, After All
#3
Man, it was decades ago when I took typing class on a manual typewriter and I learned fast and ended up being good at it.  The last actual typewriter I used was an IBM Selectric with the ball typing element.  I was a research assistant to a physicist and the ball had symbols and numbers and mathematical symbols where I would type all of his formulas and equations. If you don't think that wasn't a challenge to master! Oh my goodness. But I was really quite good at it. I was living near Washington DC and the office was in Arlington Virginia. He wanted me to move to California when he was transferred out there but I didn't want to leave the East Coast. Wonder what my life would have been had I done so but obviously the Lord wanted me right where I was and I didn't even know Him yet.

I do look occasionally around here for you Ed.  Unfortunately I could never use a manual typewriter again because of that rare affliction I have growing on my fingers. But as long as I have a keyboard I'm okay. And I can still write.

I will add that to my prayers for you when I "hover" over OK during my times with the Lord in prayer.
