ting tht alm wrk

If there is one thng worse than thngs that don't work it's things that almost work.

The internet connection in my hotel room won't let me get or send email. But if I type VERY sslowlyy onto the hotel tv screen it will let me post this. (That was about five minutes' typing, waiting to see if characters make it to the screen or not. The title of the post I simply typed - or as the hotel connection would have it ypd - and I will leave what it was meant to say as an exercise for the reader.
