damn! I don't even need to guess.... great representation! everyone knew it...
#4: Norma Dee (norm0908) on Jan 12, 2013
Right guess, Eva and Linda, Although I'm not quite sure what a Peincess is. :)

Thanks, Kurt.

It's called a typo, Norma.
#6: Norma Dee (norm0908) on Jan 12, 2013
I would think so. I worked for a printing company and the proof reader in typesetting dept. said that one of her all time favorite typos she found was about an event that was to occur at..."sex o'clock in the pubic library".

I didn't know it,lol. I thought it might be Goldilocks and the three bears. "Who's been sleeping in my bunk bed",lol. Very funny story about the library Norma. Norma I use to repair printing equipment and photocopiers for a living once. I need to ask you. Where you worked did they use any A.B.Dick offset printing machines,or were they using Heidelbergs? :)
#8: Norma Dee (norm0908) on Jan 13, 2013
They had a variety of presses. I believe some of the small presses were A.B. Dicks and I think the single color was a Heidelberg. They also had three other multi-colored presses plus a web.

Thanks Joe. My sister and I went to school with a girl named Fanny Mae Sprinkle. It didn't dawn on us until much later what their parents had done to her.

Joe, are you from Rochester, NY? I drive past Dick Ide Honda in East Rochester occasionally and see their ads on TV.

Aldege and Norma, I worked for awhile in a building that housed several 5-color and 2-color offset presses. Even 10 years after the presses were removed, you could still smell the ink they used!
#13: Norma Dee (norm0908) on Jan 13, 2013
Printer's ink certainly has a distinct odor. Some people liked it and some people wouldn't come in the building because it was so distasteful to them.
#14: Joe (infrapinklizzard) on Jan 13, 2013
Joel, I grew up west of Rochester in Spencerport.
#15: Aldege Cholette (aldege) on Jan 14, 2013
I always liked the smell of the printing houses that I serviced the equipment in.:)
