Anyway, what is a writer by profession that we chose to be during a period of our lives.

Thunderstorm and Rain
Who doesn't like a good thunderstorm? When you were little your parents probably told you it was God moving furniture around or bowling. As an adult we know it is just two air masses clashing together the hot and cold of it. I still like the idea of moving furniture around or bowling.

Typewriting
Who remembers taking a typing class in high school? At my school, believee it or not it was requirement to graduate. You had to take at least one year of typewriting, but I took both courses. As I said when writing my acrostic entitled 'Old Typewriter' I also remembered these two courses.
