One space, or two?


Posted: Oct 16, 2014

In light of the recent conversation about how many spaces should follow a period, I thought item #4 might be of interest.

Heck, with the job situation as it is for MTs, I think all of this might be of interest.

I learned to use two spaces after a period while I was in high school in 2002 and it sure wasn't on a typewriter. LOL

2 - spaces

I learned 2 spaces in high school and I WAS on a type writer with no way to correct anything.

I still think in my head as I learned it, "period, space, space."

Clean My SpaceJan 12, 2015
I recently discovered a web site called Clean My Space .com and I wanted to share it with all of you.  They are short videos put out about once a week on how to clean particular items, etc.  The "host" owns her own cleaning company and uses lots of homemade products to clean and disinfect.  For the last year, we have stopped using our dishwasher because I noticed that the dishes were coming out more dirty than they went in, so we've been washing dishes by hand and our dishwa ...

Castro Wants Guantanamo Back. He Must Need More SpaceMar 21, 2016
This sleazebag actually said "Political prisoners?  What political prisoners?  Give me names!" - and did it with the popeyed innocent expression of an infant. Obama then bloviated about the salutary effects of "interaction" between the two countries - implying that if we trade together, human rights will naturally come to Cuba.  Mr. Obama has obviously never heard of China (no, Barry, not "Chinatown" with Jack Nicholson).  You know, that biggish country due west of San Fran ...

Russian Official Under US Sanction Plays Key Role In Pentagon Space ProgramApr 25, 2014
I'm not sure what to make of this, but this entire Russian-Ukraine issue has me nervous. The first 2 paragraphs of the article are here. The rest is at the link. I know a lot of you don't like Fox News, but my feeling is that this is not a right or left wing article. A top Russian official sanctioned by President Obama in the wake of the Ukraine crisis is playing a key role in the Pentagon's space program, and thereby continuing to benefit from a lucrative no-bid contract that th ...
