Jacki, you are a master of multiple media!

Well said, Roger. I was thinking along the same lines.
As an analogy, I love to make floats out of cream soda and French vanilla ice cream, but when I drink them I think about how well those components work together, not which one I prefer.

Jung, you’re an endless fountain (pen) of interesting discussion topics!
My grade school teachers drilled the importance of good handwriting into me so deeply that the only change I’ve ever made since I learned cursive is to write much smaller, and hence faster. However, that leaves a lesser margin for error, so I end up going back over what I’ve written to close up small gaps that shouldn’t be there, widen loops that are too narrow, etc.
It never even occurred to me to come up with a stylized signature that was any different from my normal handwriting. I’ve always assumed it was especially important for a signature to be legible, but now that I think about it, it just needs to be unique.
I looked at that graphology article, and I have to agree with the skeptics who say it’s pseudoscience. There’s no evidence that any statistical correlation was attempted between people’s handwriting characteristics and their self-reported personality traits, and without at least that you’re in the realm of pure speculation.
It’s also suspicious that most of the qualities given were positive ones. This suggests it was published mainly for people to get a dopamine rush from self-affirmation. If you want to see a more even-handed approach to this sort of thing, check out Weird Al’s song “Your Horoscope for Today”.
As far as my personal collection of celebrity autographs, it’s pretty small, as just the memory of the experience of seeing someone famous means much more to me. The only autographs I can think of that I’ve obtained are Pat Morita (when I was a kid) and Micky Dolenz (after a concert). And honestly, in both cases my real goal was just to see them up close.
However, my brother has been going to comic cons for the last several years and having people sign things for me, usually presenting them to me as birthday or Christmas presents. That list includes Michael Nesmith, Henry Winkler, Lee Majors, William Shatner, Walter Koenig, Jerry Mathers, Tony Dow, Dirk Benedict, Roger Bumpass (the voice of Squidward), and Geri Reishl (“fake Jan” from the Brady Bunch variety show).

Thanks, Tom. Unfortunately, my retirement is still 10 or 15 years away!

Community college teacher here. Glad I at least teach science and not English! All I can do is tell my students that if they copy and paste this sort of stuff on homework assignments, they will be utterly unprepared for the exams.
It’s still an issue for my on-line classes, though. I used to be able to require on-line students to come to campus to take exams under supervision in the testing center, but the college has waived that in the interest of increasing enrollments. Retirement can’t get here fast enough!

JP, I have a similar affliction, but for me it resolves in a Zombies song:

Daryl, I think you can turn that gibberish on and off by clicking on the “Aa” icon at the lower left of your message before you submit it.
