It is at least 5 years old and if you copy and paste the complete text into a google search bar you will get almost 4000 hits, but it is a fun test of how different peoples minds work.

Post it upside down it makes no difference to me.

Easy peasy (have had to decipher unintelligible gobbeldygook for 3 decades ). Just scan it for content and don't try too hard to read it

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4

I am now finished in hospital for the day, just waiting to go home....

More tests on my kidneys to come this week but looking on the bright side at least I didn't break my foot when I dropped my iPad on it.

Down side is that I often type things backwards without realising it, good thing I pre-view my posts.


My answerphone/fax unit had gone really intermittant on the handset lead and I couldn't work out how to get it apart, found the service manual on the net (gratis ) and it showed how to do it. Damn cunning these Japanese, not the inviting screws underneath but ones hidden under the paper roll. Found dry joints on the handset lead connector. Now all fixed.
Have you tried turning your keyboard around so that the f-keys are at the bottom?

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4

Not sure about this but here goes. I received an email about a job that I applied for through an agency, turns out I have not been shortlisted for the role, but they would like some information from me to put me on the books.

If you are struggling click the spoiler.

Oh well if you really have to click it again.
Spoiler: 
Are you really not going to try!
Spoiler: 
Couldn't believe that I could actually understand what I was reading. The phenomenal power of the human mind, according to a research at cambridge University, it doesn't matter in what order the letters in a word are, the only important thing is that the first and last letter be in the right place.

The rest can be a total mess and you can still read it without a problem. This is because the human mind does not read every letter by itself, but the word as a whole. Amazing huh? Yeah and I always thought spelling was important.
"being left-handed" - gah! I never told daughter that she was, so she never noticed and got on with it and did a fine job of it too.
Oh - left-handed text starting from the wrong side of the page, smudged writing because the text was immediatetely scrubbed over? The smart ones learn to write from 'over the top' and then use a PC.
I expect she's just a smart cookie

Intriguing. No problems reading it here.

Of course getting all the right letters in the wrong order is one thing but getting the wrong letters in the wrong order is quite another.

She is 15, and I'm not sure what testing she has had.

I know she was bullied and got upset, so I gave my aunt to give he a list of famous people with Dyslexia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of..._with_dyslexia

Good move
seen the list before and there are famous actors and others on the list. I'm sure they HAVE to learn lines for a starter. Dyslexia did not stop them dead in their tracks - mebbe it made for a plainer understanding?
School should have dealt with the bullying.
That, life and hormones too, eh? Bless.
I'm sure you're doing your supportive part.
