Ok, so I'm a computer brat, and sometimes I wonder what it's like to type a whole term paper on a typewriter. I remember when I discovered one in one of my classrooms, I thought it was so neat. I immediately began writing a story on it.

Well, I can't remember when you could get a postcard for a penny or a stampfor three, but I do remember typewriters, carbon paper, white out, those erasers that didn't half do the job before that, and I do remember when stamps went to a nickel. I was in the fifth grade, and a mighty noiseissued from our house on account of the increase. I was born in 1953, and Iconsider that I got the best of both worlds--the old and the new!

I can remember way back when a penny postcard cost a penny. I was born in 1923 but I still feel young. Bud At 04:14 PM 1/12/2009, you wrote:Oh, yes. Feel young, Ann. There are a number of us who remember the ditto machines, if you mean the mimeograph machines that left purple ink on one's fingers--and carbon paper and manual typewriters--and having to retype whole pages of papers if mistakes were made, like getting the carbon paper in backwards.
