Don't Mess With the Titanic Toad

May I say that that would have been quite a loss for ENWorld.

True, dat. None of us would be here today.

Well, in this thread, at least. For without Crothian, there might not even be a Hivemind.

Well, going to watch Gothika. See you all in a while.

I know, and I'm going to start doing more. A stroll works but there aren't sidewalks here and I'm on a pretty major road.

It's the same here. We live just off a much used, curvy road with no sidewalks. You take your life in your hands to walk down it.

If our keyboard was really big and you had to put real effort to push each key, we'd all be olympic athletes...

IIRC, typing on typewriters uses up more energy than typing on a modern keyboard. Considering that the blasted things were generally made of metal, it figures I suppose.

Typing on them was also slower, though.

Scarred lung tissue from a lung infection 10 years ago.

Ouch. Sorry to hear that, mate.

 

[Crothian]

Ouch. Sorry to hear that, mate.

Ya, it is. I was runner in high school, can't do that anymore. Last time I went running, lost my breathe, hyper venalated, and someone had to call the ambulance. So, indoor bike now.

I used to type on my Great Aunt's old manual typewriter. Wow, that thing was hard to use. I can't imagine doing my job using something like that. (data entry)

Ugh, that's the worst, when you can no longer do something you enjoy.

Not just enjoy, but good at. Not olympic good or anything like that, but I held my own.

Due to an injury I had a while ago, I know how it feels, to want to run but to be unable to. So I can relate, even if only partially.
