White Out product for typing corrections, and became quite wealthy from the patents.

Wow, White-out is a savior for those of us who remember typing on a typewriter. They are all in museums now, I imagine. Of course, when someone invented the white-out ribbon that you could just type over the mistake, well, that was really great.

I am so old.

The qwerty key board was actually designed by an employee of the L C Smith shotgun company. They made typewriters too.

#MeToo!
I’m proud of every encroaching grey hair or stubborn wrinkle.
Badges of honor that ‘I was there’ when popular music was the very best.

A blond joke. How do you know when a blonde is on a computer? Because of the write out on the screen! 😀
