Angelweave has moved off of blogspot, and I swear I’ll update your links so stop bugging me.
Blackfive has a blogger drinker game, but I don’t like the rules for me. I don’t misspell word because I put my posts in Word before publishing. Trying to spot homophone mistakes would be more appropriate (I’ve been having trouble getting “through” vs. “threw” right on the first pass through). Also, I don’t know what it is, but Frank end up as “Frnak” a lot when I type quickly. Another word I have trouble with that comes up a lot in programming is unsigned, which I often type “unisgned”. Anyone else have similar difficulties?
I already mentioned it on Front Line Voices, but there is now a non-profit organization called Operation Give to help Chief Wiggles get toys to Iraqi children.
Emperor Misha I has the phone number of someone who is lonely and needs you to call.
But I’m so gentle at the art of bugging! Sigh. Singing telegram next week? I promise no monkey suits.
Thanks, Frank 😉

My typing problem semms to be that, many times, when I try to write a word with a double leteer in it, I repeat a diiferent leteer instead of the correct speeling.

I often type SanD iego for San Diego
I ahve a little trouble with getting the “h” first in “ahve” …
Unsigned ints are for sissies. Real men use longs.
I use unsigned chars, not ints. I’m a hardware engineer and I like working with individual bytes.
Being an Army officer, I cannot begin to guess the number of times that I have seen the word “soldier” spelled as “solider”.
Yes Frank, I can relate, when I get to typing fast, my name comes out as Sahri instead of Shari. It can happen to the best of us…
Yeah but I said “Long” huh huh…
And what is a HW Eng using C++ for? You should be using std_logic_vector(7 downto 0) and you should like it.
Unless you’re trying SystemC. Good luck with that. I worked for Synopsys for a while. CoCentric is ‘Interesting’ At best.
Frank, try the auto correct feature. That way you can type the thing wrong (if it’s consistently the same wrong way) and have it come out right.
My most common speed typing mistake is “myslef”. I don’t even know what a Slef is, much less have one I can call my own.
Dislectics untie!
scixelsyd unite!
Slef(noun)-in conjunction with “my” (as a precursor only), a term denoting right wing and obviously anti-socialist tendencies. Also, a degenerative flux preceding from the nuclear containment vessel which causes underpaid nuclear cleanup technicians to go on drinking binges every pay day.
