I got 9 seconds and change, and then 8 seconds and change, and then 7 seconds flat. Then I quit.

It's called "keyboarding" now.

That wasn't my finger.
Keyboarding has been outlawed by Congress, hasn't it? |

Spanked? That's like shaming and congratulating all in one!

[makes the technical sacrifice, spanks Shawnee w/left hand while typing this w/right]
Touch-type. Old school mechanical typewriters that went twackatwackatwacka on the paper, particularly if you hadn't remembered to lower the bail on the platen. I was never fast or good, and if my Backspace key ever breaks my typing breaks down into Low Dutch, but I think my speed has improved. Accuracy improves by keeping the touch-typing fingers moving rhythmically.

I get all excited when you spank me and say phrases like "bail on the platen."

I aim to please -- in fact, I have to aim. Uh, could you kick your feet a little?
