When I was in High school. I took a typing class. The keys were covered. So I learned to type without looking and can go pretty fast. BUUUUUUUUT!!!! I also have a concentration Problem and I hit the wrong keys. But I also know when I do hit them,sometimes I will go back and correct, more often than not, I don't. The good thing about typeing without looking at your hands is you are reading as you type or I do anyways. You are right sometimes it is pretty funny, my problem is I leave out whole words. Go Figure.

I used to be able to type fairly quickly without looking at keys, but this has turned me into, as Bev says, a one finger pecker typer. :cry: Otherwise I get typos in more than 50% of my words. sheesh. I have invented several new words while typing. Will I NEVER get used to this awful thing?!??!?

I love it. I have done some doozies myself. Just have to laugh and go on.

I have a French keyboard - the letters are all in different places and I have some with the accents é à ç for example. But Hans has a qwerty (I had to jump around to type that!) So if he asks me to check/correct a document he's written and I don't look what I'm doing - well, I end up typing serbo-croat or something!

At least on the keyboard we have a chance to fix our mistakes and inadvertant words. Many years ago I worked at a radio station, and had to do the LIVE tag-line at the end of a commercial. It was SUPPOSED to be "...and you can park free across the street." What did I say?? "...you can pee free across the street." :oops: :oops: :oops: I never did live that one down at the station. :cry:
