OT--Spelling simple words...WAS... [at-l] Re: Dyslexia



Jan:

      You had it - you didn't spell it quite right.  It's "T  -  HE"  as in Tee
Hee, as in "its a JOKE".  The answer to all of life lies in humor -- and balance
in life simply requires maintaining your sense of humor.    Simple, eh?

cheers,
Longhaul

That reminds me of the time in the early 70s when I was convinced I
had grasped the meaning of life (it was an smoke-enhanced experience,
if you catch my direction).

I thought to myself, "I HAVE TO WRITE THIS DOWN!!! This is IT!!!"

I spent the next half hour looking for pen and paper, chortling, Bob
Dylan's Tangled Up in Blue playing in the background. Because now I
had IT. The secret.

I finally found something to write on, and wrote it down. There!
Secure! Locked down for a lifetime.

In the morning, I looked at the paper and on it was the word "THE."
There it was. The secret. The key. The Answer. "THE"
However, while I may have grasped the secret of life the evening
before, I no longer possessed the perception to understand it.

Now that you have the answer, perhaps someone could explain the key to
me in very simple, everyday terms...
