I’m sorry I couldn’t figure out how to make this click-zoomable. So I must insist you click here to be able to read the tiny writing. And you really NEED to.

If anyone knows how to do the click-zoom and would like to teach a willing pseudo-geek, let me know.

What do they mean, anyway?

Should you learn them all?

Think of them as your tool chest. Learn how to “operate” them and keep them sharp and tidy. Then it’s up to you when you pull them out and put to best use. Or not.

However, I think it’s ironic that I can’t understand this definition of irony from Merriam-Webster.com:

: a pretense of ignorance and of willingness to learn from another assumed in order to make the other’s false conceptions conspicuous by adroit questioning.
Ow.

You Write Like

This is for one of those hours when you can’t get anything worthwhile written, and you’re wasting time on your digital thingy. It’s a fun way to spend five minutes, even if it can’t possibly be accurate. After all, it says I write like Dan Brown. Pshaw.
