Cursive writing

In a hundred years or so it won't matter. By then we will be speaking Chinese, Spanish or Arabic----most likely Arabic.

Chinese would be a better guess. And if you think cursive writing is bad, wait until the kids are learning to write in Chinese.

Pretty much all my life I have heard that the Chinese will take over one day but the more I see the World pussyfooting around the radical Muslim problem I'm inclined to believe that they are making a run at it. Being that its their belief that theirs is the only true God and anyone who don't believe that must go I would be more on guard against them than anyone.

I have an old Royal portable typewriter that types cursive in case any one forgets how.

Knows how to write code....can't spell the word "restaurant" without spellcheck or know how much change to give a customer back from a $20 if they hit the $50 button by mistake. Ahh...life skills.

Do you really think Zuckerberg's life depends on whether he knows how to spell restaurant correctly?

Very few people on the level of Zuckerberg. He probably has multiple secretaries to fix that stuff. Average Joe.... Not so much.

Zuckerberg's life depends on people acting like sheep.

Well that's good because the world is full of sheep and there will never be a shortage of them. That's what I call job security.

Not me but I do appreciate an elegant cursive handwriting.

But how is cursive writing a life skill?

I talked to an old man yesterday that was not too happy his grandkids knew all this stuff about computers but didn't know how to write in cursive.

I remember the uproar when Latin was removed from the core curriculum!

2 years of Latin.......knowing the meaning of words because of the Latin roots has always been valuable to me.....even though I didn't like taking Latin when all my friends were taking French.

They were tougher back then. Just pricked a finger and got to writing.
