12:06 am
jesdraggon
do what, kimm?
12:07 am
kimmtoats
get halfway done already!
12:07 am
jesdraggon
only cuz it's a tiny grid. if it was a big grid, I would still only have 40 words, it'd just be a smaller proportion
12:08 am
kimmtoats
But...I only have 4 words. how fast do you type?
12:09 am
Uneaixoise
50 and signing off -- gnite all :-)
12:09 am
jesdraggon
reasonably? I dunno... last speed quiz I took was really whack and counted errors oddly but gave me 80 wpm, i think?
12:11 am

12:13 am
jesdraggon
thanks :)
12:13 am
jesdraggon
i blame/credit my mother - she got me hooked on a typing game as a kid, that was like space invaders but you had to type the words before they destroyed your land
12:13 am
kimmtoats
I'll be lucky if I can finish this grid before it flips tomorrow!
12:13 am
jesdraggon
it's possible i'm a bit obsessive about games?
12:14 am
kimmtoats
maybe!
12:15 am
jesdraggon
but I don't usually finish the grids before anybody else; i get the first half fast and then drag the rest out feeling blind the whole time
12:17 am
rururocks
obsessive?
12:17 am

Trifioso
remember how yesterday I was so bummed that the eighth grade music students couldn't name the Beatles? today the teacher asked if anyone knew the name of any Beatles songs, and, if so, please write them on the board. I swear to God, a kid got up and wrote "Hey Jew."
9:23 am

I couldn't find it either, gramma.....
9:34 am
MollyL
I don't know how kids get to be that old and have no decent musical education. It's sad that so many schools are dropping their music and arts programs.
9:35 am
Trifioso
I read something GREAT about that the other day - if a student has no talent for music or art we just say "Oh well" and let it go. But we never say that about math, or science. Extra effort is given. So why do we let kids off so easy with arts?
9:35 am
gramma
Time for the parents to step up and enhance their children's education.
9:35 am
Trifioso
but they can name every Kardashian. It makes me want to CRY

There are many things about the "internet generation" that are just worthless.
9:37 am

We were playing charades with the grands and the littlest one guessed Kim Kardashian every time a famous person came up.

Why do little kids know about the Kardashians?
10:38 am

internet? tv?

Probably. I am one of those foolish people who assumes parents monitor what their kids watch on TV or look at on the internet
10:44 am

watch tv? our parents threw us outside, until dark or a mortal injury.
10:44 am

Can someone clue the second sh 6/21 pretty please?
11:36 am

When I was in the eighth grade, I knew the names of lots of 45 year old songs. That is because my parents exposed me to the music of their generation.

If anyone ever wants to make a list when Lickety is taking a day off, see the directions in ARB's profile. It's a great, easy way to make a list.
7:04 pm

I know my list is good since I stole it from MollyL. Thank U!
7:06 pm
Minveryork
Just read the directions. I am not tech savvy so not for me.
7:07 pm
Minveryork
I find it easier to copy and paste from others who are nice enough to post lists in their profiles. Plus, by the time I get to posting a list, others have already posted lists in theirs.
7:11 pm

You have to be comfortable with Excel to do the list that way, but it is a great and quick way to do one.
7:13 pm

I have to use Excel to do paperwork at school and I hate it

Some people don't like Excel. I am not a math/numbers person but I have a basic understanding about how Excel works and I use it at work and at home. I keep all my financial records on Excel spreadsheets.
