Yay for guest posts! Anne, typing, yes!!! Gus is always frustrated when he has to type something, because of course it makes no sense to him that the keys are not in alphabetical order. Then we explain the origins of the manual typewriter and he looks at us with one of those, "oh, my pathetic paleolithic parents" gazes. Emily, that is a genius idea. Yay for guest posts!

I totally got that w/o the footnote. Did you see "Hitch?" Very cute movie. They had that scene at Ellis Island, there was definitely a signup book under glass. Gus needs his own blog! But the typing...they don't even teach it! My brother never learned because they said "everything is on the computer." Well, duh, including the keyboard which is...what, JUST like a typewriter, layout-wise!? Hell in a handbasket. I love "little chunk of everything." So true.
