What I thought when I saw the pic is that it was one sexy banana.  Fully ripe, half pealed and half eaten with an expensive lady's change purse poured out behind it. 

Hope this doesn't mean that I'm a pervert.  Everyone else is talking about something else :-[

Why I thought it was just an interesting picture too....??... ;)

Funny thing. I failed English one year in HS. Failed gym too but that is not relevant here. I did go to make them up but alas girls were more important. Didn't stop me from getting my degree though.
Anyhow I managed to fail English with a reading rate over 1200 wpm with 95% comprehension. And ever since I started working all I've ever done is work with words. When I set hot type I'd go months without a correction. My proofreaders hated it. One time our home office sent a girl down to "teach" me. Took two damn months to get the type cases right after she left.  And I was twice as fast (at least) as she was. My wife was faster than me though.

I'm dyslexic.  When I was a kid they didn't know what it was and everyone thought that I was stupid.  Still, I majored in English Lit.  I speak well. I'm a good writer.  There are lots of other things that I don't do well like numbers, anything having to do with a sense of direction, and recognizing faces, and more.  I am stupid in some areas.  I'm quite gifted in others.  What I know is that I don't like to be made to feel stupid because I can't spell.

Liz while you may be ignorant in some areas you give no indications of being stupid in any of them that I can see.

Jon, that purse is a cheap knock off.

I remember when those little change purses were used by women all the time. Now it's all about credit and debit cards. Also with the faster pace of life it would take too much time to pick through the little change purse...   

See, that's not just a neat picture. It's another source for the twists and turns discussions take on this forum.   ;)
When you find people who not only tolerate your quirks but celebrate them with glad cries of "Me too!" be sure to cherish them. Because those weirdos are your tribe.  (Sweatpants & Coffee)

My Grandmothers both had little black ones....I remember them well. I saw a nice older lady using one at WallyWorld one day.....she just took her time and found the exact change... ;D...brought a smile to my face....

Me fail English?  That's unpossible.

If there's one thing I can't stand, it's snobbery and one-upmanship. People trying to pretend they're superior. Makes it so much harder for those of us who really are.
