  • Can you touch type?

    Jump

  • Yep.Went to an all-boys Catholic High School and there were no technical programs (shop, auto, woodworking) bc they couldn't afford the programs, nor the space. Barely had a gym.Anyhoo, 'options' were typing, bookkeeping, and Latin.Took typing for 2 years, buddy and I would race-type song lyrics out of our heads (lyrics often weren't included in the liner notes).

  • What were they called? I'd love to know, as apparently through decades of rv-ing, cottaging, and travelling, I don't recall encountering them! And none of the rv industry's resources mentioned this decades-old technology! Do you have any images of them on store shelves? Air Fryer recipes from the 90s?

  • My oven won't fit on the counter top, or in my RV.I can't plug my oven into any standard household outlet.My oven's energy costs are considerably more than these apparently decades-old air fryers (that nobody knew about).

    Other than that, you're 100% correct, tho'!
