Found in the Attic

[Rodgera]

SWMBO and the grand kids had been up in the spare room together
doing some cleaning.

The kids uncovered an old manual typewriter and asked her,
"Hey Nan, what's this?"

"Oh, that's an old typewriter," she answered, thinking that would
satisfy their curiosity.

"Well what does it do?" they asked.

"I'll show you," she said and returned with a blank piece of paper.
She rolled the paper into the typewriter and began striking the keys,
leaving black letters of print on the page.

"WOW!" they exclaimed, "that's really cool, but how does it work like
that? Where do you plug it in?"

"There is no plug," she answered. "It doesn't need a plug."

"Then where do you put the batteries?" they persisted.

"It doesn't need batteries either," she continued.

"Wow! This is so cool!" they exclaimed. "Someone should have invented
this a long time ago!"

You were all keyed up for that one weren't you Allan.




To think back to how many 40's 50's and 60's song had sounds of typewriters in the back ground.........or even as part of the beat or main theme.
Your not going to hear that these days are you.........ring tones maybe.
