Write. No, Really Write, Me a Meme
I’m not a writer. But you knew that. Let me add to your edification and elucidation. I hardly hand-write anything, outside of my signature on a credit card swipey thing. Which by the way, I have just come to making a squiggle that any sane person would recognize as meaningless. It’s all part of my plan to max out my credit cards one day using just the squiggle signature and then challenge them all.
“Not me… look at that signature… must have been a monkey!”
Cynical B wrote about this meme and I thought it would be interesting. Not so much for what I wrote, but for the people I tagged. I do hope they do it. I think seeing their handwriting would be interesting.

The questions …
1. Your name/blog name?
2. Right-handed, left-handed, or ambidextrous?
3. Favorite letters to write?
4. Least favorite letters to write?
5. Write “The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.”
6. Write the following words in capital letters:
– CRAB
– HUMOR
– KALEIDOSCOPE
– PAJAMAS
– GAZILLION
7. Write your favorite song lyric.
8. Tag people!
9. Any special note or picture.
I’m tagging Grandad because I know they don’t allow him sharp objects and he will have to use a marker; Catch Her In The Wry, because she doesn’t have anything else to do before April 15; Suburban Hippie because the meme doesn’t contain the word; Hyperbole and a Half, even though I spelled her name wrong, it’s really Allie Raptor; Joy of Six because I bet she handwrites a lot! Probably even hand writes thank you notes; and Larry Wallberg only handwrites notes in the margins of books.
Much as I’d love to take part in this meme I can’t because:
(1) I have no scanner, and I refuse to write directly onto my computer screen;
(2) I failed penmanship (remember that worthless exercise?) from the 3rd to the 5th grade, until my mother taught me how to type on a portable Smith-Corona that weighed more than I did;
(3) I’m basically no-handed, which is why I have to hire someone to change a light bulb, and also why I refer to myself as Mr. Break-It;
(4) I have no favorite letters to write, although I love typing zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz;
(5)Similarly, I have no least favorite letters to write, but I hate typing ^ and %;
(6) To tell the truth, my fox is much lazier than my dog;
(7) The quick, humorous crab in pajamas jumped over a gazillion lazy kaleidoscopes
(8) My favorite song lyric is “Bomp-b-b-bomp, b-bomp-b-bom-bomp”;
(9) Every time I ever tag someone, I wind up getting married;
(10) The last picture I drew was of an elephant when I was five years old, and everyone thought it was the sun.
So, sorry.

@Larry: Thanks for playing along, love #7. We have some lovely parting gifts.
You old bastard! You know I hate these things.
My handwriting has finally reached the stage where I can’t read it myself. It is so bad, it almost qualifies me to be a doctor.
I might do this though, but it will mean going out to buy a pen or something. I threw all the old ones away as I had no further use for them.
