In the world of hi-tech gadgetry, I've noticed that more and more people
who
send text messages and emails have long forgotten the art of
capitalization.


For those of you who fall into this category, please take note of the
following statement. "Capitalization is the difference between helping
your
Uncle Jack off a horse, and helping your uncle jack off a horse."


Is everybody clear on that?


* *Why sure; I've always been quick to help my Uncles.

Hi Wayno - at last you've found the shift key.


Your future postings will have lost the character I enjoyed.

For me the lower the case, the higher the intellect :-)
Bill-


As a former typesetter (in the days when type was actually set by
typesetters) and a lifelong continuing reader, I can attest that
discerning bibliophiles could care less whether anyone helps his uncle
jack off horses.....vocationally or avocationally*. What matters is
whether the story is worth telling.....and how it is told. And the
latter has little to do with whether or not one's reach exceeds one
grasp at the type case.

Stories emanting from carolina are like presidents emerging from
virginia......ubiquitous, but never tedious. I'll tell the boys from
cackalacky how to write when i've finished teaching the likes of
washington and jefferson the rudiments of government.
