It's time for this punklet to shut up and get back to his xBox.

Just the Facts is a discussion of current world events from the point of view of someone who lives on the fringe of polite society, just plain old oil field trash.

No. 35 - Typewriter of the Day Smith Corona Silent Super
No.35 - TOTD Smith Corona Silent Super
Here is another of my Smith Corona Silent Super, one of the greatest typewriters. It also opened my mind as I looked at it, the name is Silent Super not Super Silent. I had always reversed the name. Most typists love the touch of the machine, I love that and the shape - smaller then most, easy to move.
I went back to the Guru and the Writers and their Typewriters and reviewed the writers who used the Silent Super and found Donald Westlake. I had never read any of his work but after reading about him I am going to test his work by reading his first novel. I always like to start a series at the the beginning so I can observe both the authors development and the development of his character, Try this with someone like Jo Nesbo and you will see a marvelous metamorphosis as the author learns his trade and develops his or her skill.
Here is a picture of my machine.
Enjoy and have a great Easter.

No 34 - Typewriter of the Day: Royal Custom
No. 34 - TOTD: Royal Custom
These machines from the early 70's are easy to find but most have not born the test of time well. I have had a few and sorry to say a lot have gone the Goodwill or Salvation Army Thrift Store exit. I don't want to waste space in my collection for machines I wouldn't use on a daily basis. This Custom has made the cut due to its script font. I am a sucker for script machines. Here you go:
PS didn't bother to find anyone who wrote with one.
