| Good to see people using typewriters. Came across this very interessting article the other day: https://nationalpost.com/feature/this-is-my-destiny-a-clattering-tale-about-typewriters-and-the-people-who-have-loved-and-hated-them/wcm/8c53faa8-93da-4ee4-9494-d3f206cf8765 In it there was this poem. “Ode to a Typewriter”: Instrument of my despair, Frankly you get in my hair. I must sit and make you clatter While my hips grow slowly fatter. Just when there is most to do You always strip a gear or two; I would like to wring your neck, But I need that weekly cheque. |
