Major headaches while I struggled to learn how to skim and move my eyes in a circle and zigzags picking out words and phrases. And re-molding the text into a comprehensible form.

I believe that’s why people watch cat videos. Much easier and fun.

(Apologies to e readers. Not never my cup of tea.)

Kick in to the DU tip jar?

As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
