random poll

[rm]

Super busy. Am suddenly curious about this. Apparently most kids entering college in the US this year don't know how to write in cursive. I suspect this is less a sign of the apocalypse than it feels like to me.

So, tell me things (as usual, poll is un-scientific and reflects my biases and experiences (and 49-year-olds can choose which age category they like better!) -- if the boxes don't work, my apologies and comments super welcome.):

i took drafting and was very good at it. this was in a suburb wedged right between Detroit and the GPs, so us public school kids were taught that our one best hope was the Big Three. i was on the fast track to start taking college level drafting courses and, by senior year, actually working (as an unpaid intern, i'm sure) for the automaker of my choice. then, thankfully, we moved out of the state.
