Thanks Lamp, Ortho, I see a lot of shit and occasionally IOtD worthy, at least in my opinion worthy. UT said when he was doing every day it would take him a half hour average for each. It takes me a little longer because I'm a one finger typist, if I use two it takes longer to edit, so it's a wash. My old key board, if I hit two keys at once it would only take the first to connect, but this keyboard prints both. Sometimes auto-correct jumps in and changes the word without my noticing because I'm looking at the keyboard, so I have to preview and read carefully a couple times to catch shit, then too often forget to submit.

I enjoy doing it, but every day for years at a time can be grueling. That nagging in the back of my head that it's got to be done and I don't have anything saved.

Recently someone who commented regularly emailed me with a suggestion for an IOtD along with a couple links and a short personal story. I PMed them that they should post it, since they had all the info and knew what the post should convey. I said don't worry about screwing it up because it wasn't a big deal and we could fix it.
They haven't been back since they read the PM.
