Many of you have probably been waiting for more kernels of wisdom from 6 of 8, given her recent missives on psychology, philosophy and theology. So it is with great pleasure I’m able to bring you yet another brilliant facet from 6 of 8’s perspective of the world.
1 of 8 loves old typewriters and has developed quite a beautiful collection. Her typewriters are artistically displayed in her room, each one highlighted. 6 of 8 was chatting with 1 of 8 in 1’s room last week when the following exchange took place.
6 of 8: “You sure do love typewriters!”
1 of 8: “Yes, I do!”
6 of 8: “Once they get too old, can I have one?”
1 of 8: “That’s the great thing about these typewriters. The older they get, the cooler they get because they are a part of history…”
6 of 8: (eye roll, exasperated…) “Tsk, no, 1 of 8, history was when the world was black and white…”
I suppose that’s how you can know if your antiques are truly old…if they’re still in color, they apparently are not all that old…
