WOW. 225 WPM!

I'm a pretty good typist. I used to be better. Actually I was damn fast on the IBM Selectric, the greatest typewriter ever. What I'm not good at and don't even try is texting. But this is about typing. Every time I type a blog, I made about six or seven typos which I have to go back and fix. Which is why I find it so hilarious that every major character, usually a male, in every movie who has to use a computer keyboard never, ever makes a typing mistake. No, they speedily click away, like the most efficient secretary. Not only is it absolutely ridiculous, but I don't know why the other soldiers, space cadets, or bank-robbing criminals in the film  don't say, "Gee, where'd ya learn to type like that?"
