WOW, Kat...how many nights did you stay up late working on this one.

Wonderful listing, I just might take a ride over to the FRHS this week and add to my growing collection...I have so many from EBay.

that Kat types with one finger! (not that she doesn't have 10, just that she never took a typing class in junior high)!!!

I have often mused that the typing class I took when I was 12 was the most important course I ever took. I have used that knowledge more than any other imparted to me.

I just "do it" when I feel like it, and in easy stages.
I think I type 40 wpm with maybe 2 errors.

Thanks for noticing, folks!

Please call the FRHS FIRST, for availability of products, unless you like to be surprised. (508-679-1071 for operating hours, also).

I think the crime scene photo's, first generation, would be worth the trip!

Thanks to a certain Bordenite, we have the temporary use of the video:
HASH & REHASH, which I saw last night.

Immediately after, I cleaned 5 litterboxes in 89 degree heat.

I would be hard-pressed to tell you which endeavour was more satisfying, overall.

I did appreciate seeing Muriel Arnold, Prof. Starrs, Stephen Nissenbaum, Ed Thibault, Barbara Ashton, Frank Knowlton, Jr., Andrew Jennings Waring, and GABRIELLA ADLER, our new publisher of the LBQ, and whose dissertation Stef is reading and enjoying immensely, right now!
