It was typing for me. Just before the computer explosion hit, I finished that class and was able to type fairly well. Very glad I took it even though I only got a "C" in the class.

I hated physics. the labs never did what they were supposed to do or at least we were never able to get the results. I failed tests in there all the time. And I find it ironic that I still remember some of the things we learned in there and put them to use occasionally.
Typing was the best class I ever took and I was the best in the class. I already had the dexterity from piano lessons, so I was quite the fast typist. In college (pre-computer days) I could type all my own papers while everyone else was looking for (and paying) someone to type theirs.

Typing here also. Took it for the hell of it with a friend when I was a senior. Class full of freshmen/sophmore girls who had secretarial aspirations. I was fastest in class at 48 words per minute.

Alright. Face it. The only reason you fellas say typing is because it makes it easier for you to pad your posts!

Typing too, even though I took it during the summer and had to walk a mile or two and had to be there at 8 am, which is an ungodly hour in the summer when you are 15.
