Just now I made a mistake in trying to get here. It seems I took a wrong turn. I meant to type www.trains.com but instead I left of the ‘s’ and went to www.train.com. [oops] Interesting. They’re slogan is “Your Site for Trains.” You can go to sites on American rail travel, European rail travel, you can even look up train on eBay, etc., and they have a site for training. Funny, did anyone tell them about trains.com?
So I tried again. This time I got the ‘s’ put in there but I mixed up a couple letters. I ended up typing www.trians.com. [sigh] This just isn’t my day. But you know what it is? Some French wine website. Looks interesting, but since I don’t read, speak, or write French about all I could do was look a the pictures. But I didn’t see any trains there.
This time I tried again and was successful at getting to www.trains.com. Just need to take a breath, slow down, and type one letter at a time.
Am I the only one that’s makes these mistakes? Perhaps I’ve been sipping too much French wine… [;)]
Bon’jour! (I think), or at least have a nice day. [:)] [:o)]
I can type about 40 words a minute, if you don’t take off for mistakes. There are times when I wonder if I might not get into the negative numbers… Nice part about computers is that you can look over what you wrote and fix the really bad stuff, BEFORE you hit enter. Of course, sometimes you hit enter, and just before the stuff disappears from the screen you spot a really dumb mistake…
Back in the old manual typewriter days (before correction tape) it was erase, erase, erase. And if you were cutting a teletype tape, it was tear it off and start over again. Computers may be a pain sometimes, but I’ll take them…
As for surfing, you can stumble into some interesting sites. Then again, you can stumble into some INTERESTING sites (as in, what the heck am I doing here?) I did a search for EMD earlier, www.emd.com is a medical company of some sort… I did find GM EMD, though.
Good point, but i’m just in a hurry for my own good. The brain still moves faster than the fingers, but ironically it’s not fast enough to catch the mistakes.
Funny, we think of EMD as a locomotive while in someone else’s world it means healthcare.
