Dear Tax-chick,

“(rant ON) What are the students doing on the Internet anyway? We got an excellent education, through college, with no more than a word processor.”

You had WORD PROCESSORS? We didn't even have TYPEWRITERS!! We didn't even have PAYPYRUS!! We had to pound out our answers in STONE!!

My senior thesis weighed four TONS!!

Misspellings were a B!TCH to correct!!

Dear sitetest,

Snert.

I made some money in college because I had a manual typewriter, which worked when the power was off, which was a lot of the time. If you had a paper due, you’d pay me a per-page fee, plus wine and candles, to get it done during a power failure.

Maybe they’ve fixed the power issue in the last 25 years.
