NUTC 1: Wrapping Up

typing one handed as my wife is busy helping the counselors wrap things up. week 1 is almost a wrap. dylan's team plays micah's team in the finals and then we all go home.

adam fagan (nutc 06, carlton, mischief) stopped by for a few days. in general, the kids seemed to learn a lot and, for the most part, had a good time.

i noticed dylan helping out a few players with how to lay out. i went over to offer tips, but, for some reason, they didn't seem interested.

dylan's team beat zip in semis and micah beat sambob/ebay. both were very good games. hard fought, great plays, good energy.

i did manage to play "motorcycle girl" with my wife playing guitar....

overall, camper numbers are up 30% this year, so we have a couple of days to reload and then it begins again on sat.

I know what you meant here, but wow.

Haha...is ot a good thing, or a bad thing that I did not notice what Tarr noticed? Actually, I got pretty good at typing with one hand when I broke my wrist this spring. I had to write a bunch of essays for school, so I learned to stretch my hand out and experiment, because tip-tapping got old real fast. (My pinkie now does a lot of the work) Now, I do it all the time, whenever I have to hold a drink or sandwhich or book. It's nice skill to have.

George...sorry to hear the news.

Dragon Dictate is getting better every version. You might consider giving it a trial run, but I'n not sure on the present price.
