Drabble by Kevin Fagan for June 21, 2014

Naw – scribble works for me. no one ever reads it anyway.

With my tremor, I use a lot of time. I love the comment I frequently get from the cashier, “Just take your time.” What, do they think I’m rushing???

Better check to see if your milk expired while waiting

What happens if you have a really long name? Like that lady in Hawai who campaigned for more space on her licence to write her whole name?

maybe ‘squeak squeak squeak’ or ‘scratch scratch scratch’ (depending on the surface she’s writing on.write write write—-doesn’t quite make it, but what do I know?

Old people still write checks; they don’t use debit cards.

BJACH outpatient pharmacy recently quit using signature-capture pads because wait times were so long. The change helped.

A fellow sufferer! With that, one has to take time, otherwise it looks like the wires under the table for computers. At least “effective” (it should be “affective”) or “familial” tremor beats the old name of “senile palsy”.

The pin pads generally USED to look just like a squiggle but nowadays can give a pretty clear read out (just as surveillance cameras are also improving). I’m fairly old (76) but can sign a pin pad clearly as well as online papers and contracts.

do they really check those? mine is a different squiggle every time.
