I've been giggling over it all morning. It's better than anything I ever wrote when I was a kid, that's for sure.

Oh, man. This shows promise. I'll read it when I have more time to collapse helplessly laughing. That is so adorable.

Fascinating. Not only did this "kid" use a typewriter, he apparently also used one extremely long sheet of paper.

I've been perusing through it when I have a free moment. It never stops being cute/funny. I can see myself writing something like this when I was about nine. I hope the person who wrote it was/is young.... Posts: 1006 | Registered: Jun 2006

I don't know. It could be possible, couldn't it? Couldn't a kid find a typewriter sitting up in the attic and decide he wants to play around with it?
My husband thinks it's written by a not-entirely-there, older adult - which would explain the typewriter better.
What kind of hoaxter uses a typewriter these days?
It's quite a mystery. But it's hilariously bad, regardless.

It could have been those autofeed sheets for those old printers (that we *still* use at my workplace). Tear off the holes and the side and start typing! (Clickety-clack...)
