Yeah sometimes I think to much and have too much I'm want to say and then my mind just completely blank about something or I'll forget to say something that I really wanted to say. It just hard to get it all down sometimes. But I always make the silliest little mistakes when writing something. Usually I'll catch them and correct them before I can spell check them, LOL!

Yeah sometimes I'm too lazy to check for mistakes and I just send the post out! And I always end up regretting it. I mean I know most people get the gist of what I'm saying, but it's still kinda embarrassing! Lol

Lol, yeah I do try to read people's posts, even if they're hard to read initially. I don't want to give up, lol. I remember when I first learned to type, it took me awhile, I was behind in the class. But it got easier, and now I type about 74 words per minute, yay! Lol

What's really weird is that sometimes I do it in my head for no reason. Like when I'm not typing, I go through the different letters on the key board (in the right order) and put words together. I guess that's a sign that the training worked! Lol

You know? I've always had trouble typing and I was always behind the rest of the class. I though I would never get better at it. It just naturally happen form just doing it for years rather then having to learn in a set of rules. But from fourth grad to twelfth, I just barely passed with the minimum.

But you're good it you can do it in your head. I can't do that. But like I'm sure most people, I can type without really thinking about what I'm pressing, LOL!

Well I've found I often learn slowly, or at least I take my time and need it explained to me a few times. However, in the end, I usually understand the subject much better than everyone else! Hehe, so sometimes it's good to take your time (within reason). :smile:

Well that makes sense, that you learned over time through practice. That's one way people learn. We were told to type one letter at a time over and over and over (and over and over) again. So we got used to where they all were without looking. It takes forever, but it does work, at least it worked for me. However, we were never taught the numbers, so I still have to look down to find them.

That's kind of the way I learned - first the hunt-and-peck, and then holding your fingers over the home rows. I've been told that I'm a very noisy typist; Mom says she can hear me hammering away at my computer keyboard from all the way across the house.

And wait a moment - it appears, at least to me, anyway, that we have hit the big 300! Incidentally, on Muppet Wiki, they announced that today they hit the 15,000 articles mark. So, a heck of a way to celebrate RH's birthday.

(by the way: there's going to be a big party in the Muppet College Dorms, since Richard shares a birthday with a few of his characters, so I guess that's where we're going to celebrate)

Ah yes the trusty home row! Yeah I'm a noisy typist as well. Hehe

Yeah I did notice that on Muppet Wiki, good for them!

Thanks for letting us know, MN!

Just t'ought this would be of interest to my fellow RHLC-ers - I've posted a second version of my Richard fanmix to the birthday thread in the Henson People forum. There's also a link to the fanmix I did for his birthday last year.

Check it out here, if you're interested. :smile:
