With the resent threads about schools not teaching penmanship -

Bozo Criminal for October 6, 2009 There have been numerous stories in the news recently about the lack of effort many schools now put into teaching their students proper penmanship. It would seem that trend has now trickled down to our bozos. From Hillsboro, Oregon, comes the story of bozo Stephanie Matthews who walked into a bank and handed the teller a note apparently demanding cash. We say apparently, because our bozos handwriting was so poor the clerk couldn't read it. When she handed the note back to her, our bozo then went to a nearby counter to rewrite the note. While she was working on it, the clerk hit a silent alarm, the cops were summoned and our bozo was placed under arrest.

There has been much discussion over many years about both penmanship - or in this case penwomanship - and spelling.

It puts me in mind of a marker in one of the big education system's final year exam marking here in Oz. He said, in answer to a question from the press that he had never been defeated by poor spelling in marking a paper, only by poor writing (read penpersonship.)

Says a lot, does it not?
