After watching Game of Thrones, I re took up letter writing, I have my Quills, fake parchment paper and my sealing wax. I write to the grand kids. They like to get the letters. I also started a journal. All in all it’s very soothing and fun. I’m not a great speller, so there’s only my manual spell check, which can go awry at a moments notice. Lol

I always made a point of having a legible handwriting when signing credit card slips, though I've always seen people scribble their "X" in a way that nobody could verify the signature if ever challenged.

Now, they are replacing the paper slips with little screens no larger than smart phones, and I'm supposed to sign my name with my finger. I can't get anything close to resembling my signature on those things, so I just stopped trying. Shouldn't the chip in the card be enough?

And the clerks don't seem to care, either. So in hindsight, what's the point in signing, except maybe to verify the tip amount?
