Is your handwriting young or old?
A colleague sent me this very interesting article on how handwriting and the teaching of handwriting is changing with the advent of technology:

http://news.com.com/Is+the+...

I especially like the "featured gallery" off to the side where you can see two handwriting samples and guess which one was written by the young person and which by the older one.

My handwriting looks like a chicken got injected with equal parts tequila and cocaine and someone strapped a pen to its leg.

I would imagine the crayons tend to make mine look young.

About the only time I write anymore is to send a card to my sweetheart, or write the monthly check to my gardener, (he doesn't accept on-line payment yet).

It won’t be long before he accepts on line payment.

He will soon go the way of the rest of us wordsmytherers.

By the Way Dianne. My payment has yet to be posted..

Don’t make me hold my Breath again..

Hands are for wringing today, not writing.

I send my gardener's pay directly to his home planet.
