Tacoma Type-in

Rockin' the ITAM tattoo!

type-in

I was at work, sneaking into the type-in.  The timing worked out perfectly, though I'd rather have been typing-in than updating plugins. Gotta replace that craptop soon.

More on the Woodstock

I forgot to mention that the Woodstock came with its original cover!

New to the team

I make that out to be 1931. My first ever 1930's typewriter!

That typebar isn't stuck - I was leaning on the keys

Still researching these.  I'm wondering if I'll see an endorsement from a typing champ.

I kinda think this one was in a collection.

ITAM update

Forgot to mention I also had to select music, as well as bring food, which meant estimating attendance, which led to scrambling to get the word out.

Post-war semi-portable

Guess who?

To remind you of the tune, here is a link to the original. Next one to do Karaoke sing this ok?

This is how we do it

It’s Friday night, and I feel all right

The party is here on the net now

So I reach for my Sterling and open it up

Designated writer get my keys unstuck

Hit the margin ‘cause I’m faded

Honeys in the ‘sphere say “notagain we made it!”

It feels so good at my desk tonight

The literary nerds and the guys with Lamys

Alphasmart bangers forgot about the type-in

You gotta get your groove on, before you start the next page

So tip up your cup and throw your hands up

And let me hear the party say

I’m kinda buzzed and it’s all because

This is how we do it

Typosphere does it like nobody does

This is how we do it

To all pencasters and writing masters

This is how we do it

Let’s take up the slack, bring the old-school back

This is how we do it

This is how we do it, all hands are on the keys

And move them from a to z

If you’re an E.B. White  or a wanna-be McCarthy

You see Goodwill’s been good to me

Ever since I was a lower-case T

But now I’m a big T.  The girls see I got the iron

A ten-dollar anvil

If you were from where I’m from then you would know

That I gotta write mine on a big black Rand

You can write yours on a three-two

Whatever it is, the type-in’s underway

So flip up the bail and slide on the rails

And let me hear the party say

I’m kinda buzzed and it’s all because

This is how we do it

Typosphere does it like nobody does

This is how we do it

LFP, Writing Ball, all my homies

This is how we do it

I’m a noveling hack on the old-school rack

This is how we do it

Peerless Rubber Keys

DON'T PANIC! THEY ARE NOT 'CHOPPED!

This is how they fit on.  An incomplete set can be annoying.

The recent auctions haven't even mentioned the keytops, I just happened to notice them in the photos.

One possible reason there are incomplete sets.  The cat could not leave them alone

Sticky keys

life lesson taken to heart

First dispatch from the front.

ACTIVATE THE OMEGA 13 (hundred)!

Inception post

Could this typewriter

be said to have a TrueType font? so... if I made a TrueType font out of it...
