Bulawayo Morning Mirror Edition 840 - 17/7/2019

Anyone under the age of thirty will probably not even know what an old fashioned typewriter looks like unless they see one in a book or a museum, but we Baby-boomers from the Dark Ages sure know and remember those old monsters with shuddering horror !!

Cast your mind back to those rigid little keys that you had to hit with force of a sledgehammer compared to the caressing feel of a modern computer keyboard !! The earliest typewriters used keyboard layouts that had letters arranged alphabetically. These layouts enabled the typist to locate keys easily. However, a problem often occurred. When the typist struck in rapid succession two or more keys whose type bars were next to one another, the bars frequently jammed. To remedy this problem, a helpful fellow called Sholes helped develop another layout in the 1870's. This layout, known as QWERTY, is still the standard for keyboards in most English-speaking countries. It is called QWERTY because the letters Q, W, E, R, T, and Y appear in succession near the upper left-hand corner of the keyboard. In the QWERTY layout, the bars for the letters that most often appear in combination in the English language are far apart.

It always amazed me how beautifully manicured some secretaries could keep their nails when mine were ragged and split and scuffed from tackling those objectionable old Remingtons.

I must now let our younger readers know that these typewriters were not powered by anything other than ones own manual forcible hand power !! Oh yes indeed, the pounding of one of the letters by one's fingers, moved the little key along until you reached the edge of the piece of paper and then with the help of a little lever you would with some considerable force, manually push the carriage across from the right hand side of the paper back to the left hand side. And this had to happen at the end of each and every single line, and they dare complain about RSI (repetitive strain injury !!) This was jolly well hard labour you mark my words.

Things improved a tad when the electric typewriter was invented but for some reason the manual typewriters were kept in the schools and offices in Zimbabwe for many years probably as a form of corporal punishment.

Typing more than one copy of anything was a nightmare. Several copies of a document were often demanded by unthinking bosses who had never laid a finger on a type writer in their pampered lives !!

There was the all important top copy of nicest bond paper, followed by the flimsy pink sheet of paper which probably went to the accounts department, followed by the pale blue copy which went to the sales department, then the buttercup yellow sheet which went to the filing department and last but not least the white sheet which probably ended up in the bin but was compulsory just to test your mettle as a typist AND each sheet interspersed with a sheet of carbon paper. Even getting these six sheets of paper to line up evenly with the six sheets of carbon paper tucked in between, was a work of art trust me !!

Now I had to actually explain what a sheet of carbon paper was to my daughter !!

Woe betide you if you made a typing error and pressed the wrong key by mistake !!

Out came that horrid blue pencil typewriter eraser, it had a white piece of rubber on one end and a itsy bitsy brush on the other. Each copy of that darned manuscript had to be altered in minute ghastly detail. Little pieces of paper carefully and painstakingly placed in between every single sheets of paper to stop the carbon marking the paper below as you rubbed ever so delicately as not to tear that awful flimsy paper. It was a total nightmare.

The introduction of tippex made things a teensy weensy bit easier but not a great deal, white blobs and splodges were a dead give away to the boss, and most secretaries gave a sigh of relief when those little continuous tippex strips were invented as if you were careful enough you could get away with a whole lot more in the mysterious realms of typing trials and tribulations.

I never had a typing lesson and was self taught which was probably why I never stayed, thank heavens, in any typing pool for too long, but radio and TV scripts also had to have several copies, one for the audio, one for the operator and one for the video operator.

None of this cutting and pasting that we know of today, if you needed to put in some extra words, too bad, out came that piece of paper and you started all over again from the top !! Imagine the poor fellow who had to type out War and Peace for Mr Tolstoy !!

Now I know we have probably forgotten the horrors of the old typewriter already, but do you remember changing the ribbon

Oh yes, it had a little spool with an actual sixty inch ribbon that jumped along winding merrily from spool to spool from side to side, black on the bottom half and red on the top half of the more modern machines and these little darlings had to be changed periodically at much cost to life and limb.

There would be ink everywhere, on the desk, on the clothes, on the fingers, on the nose, I could cry when I remember those awful awful cruel days of typing yore !!

And so when the blessed computer was introduced into our lives, life became a whole lot easier. Our children will never ever know just what horrors we had to go through will they

Watchdog !!
Snippets

RIFF RAFF - The Mississippi River was the main way of travelling
from north to south. Riverboats carried passengers and freight but
they were expensive so most people used rafts. Everything had the
right of way over rafts which were considered cheap. The steering oar
on the rafts was called a "riff" and this transposed into riff-raff,
meaning low class.

ALL EVENTS IN THE ROBERT SIBSON HALL
THE ACADEMY AND PERFORMING ARTS BULAWAYO

The Return of the Pink Panther, generally regarded as the funniest of the entire series, marked the return - after an 11-year hiatus - of Peter Sellers as Inspector Clouseau, along with the famous 'Pink Panther' diamond which has once again been stolen. Clouseau is called in to catch the thief and, convinced that 'The Phantom' has returned, utilises all of his resources to find the diamond and reveal the true identity of 'The Phantom'.
'Watching it is like taking a long, wild sail off a banana peel and landing a couple of hours later, softly and unharmed, exhausted from laughing.' [New York Times]
'"The Return of the Pink Panther" is an irresistible treat and a must-see with many, many memorable and rip-roaring laughs. [IMDb]
'In its vigorous and bulls-eye way, "T'he Return of the Pink Panther" is a cheerful escape from all the things that ail us. [Los Angeles Times]
Admission: $6.00 [free to Film members]

FRIDAY 19 JULY AT 7.00 P.M. BERNSTEIN CONDUCTS HAYDN AND SCHUBERT
Bernstein's interpretations of Haydn's symphonies have consistently met with unreserved critical acclaim. He, of all conductors, possessed precisely the qualities which Haydn's music requires: grace, charm and a generous measure of wit. The programme includes the well-known 'Surprise' Symphony as well as the delightful Sinfonia Concertante for violin, cello, oboe, bassoon and orchestra.
After the interval comes Schubert's 'Great C major Symphony', a work discovered by Schumann among the composer's papers ten years after his death and prompting him to write euphorically 'here, beside sheer musical mastery of the technique of composition is life in every fibre, colour in the finest shadings, meaning everywhere, the acutest etching of detail, and all flooded with a Romanticism that we have encountered elsewhere in Franz Schubert.'

This is a first-rate performance of Schubert's "Great C major", with fine sound, enhanced by the excellent camera work that shows the appropriate musicians at key moments and Bernstein revelling in a work that he obviously loved. [Amazon]
Admission: $6.00 [free to Red Carpet members]

THURSDAY 25 JULY AT 7.00 P.M. ROMANCING THE STONE
'Romancing the Stone' reaches back to the classic Saturday morning serials of old with an action-filled adventure enlivened by the sparkling chemistry between its well-matched leads as adventure writer Joan Wilder (Kathleen Turner) teams up with soldier of fortune Jack Colton (Michael Douglas) after learning that her sister is being held prisoner by evil art dealers in Colombia. It seems that her sister has mailed Wilder a map leading to a valuable treasure and this is the price the kidnappers are demanding for her freedom. But there are plenty of others who want the map too...
'After all the Raiders rip-offs, it's fun to find an adventure film that deserves the comparison, that has the same spirit and sense of humour.' [Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times]
'Filled with twists, stunts, and witty banter, "Romancing the Stone" is a breathlessly enjoyable action comedy. [BBC]
Admission: $6.00 [free to Film members]

FRIDAY 26 JULY AT 6.00 P.M. MAMA MIA! and MAMMA MIA! HERE WE GO AGAIN

'Mamma Mia!' and its sequel need no introduction but here's a chance to see them both again - with a break for supper in between and special decor to enhance the evening!
'An absolutely hilarious, rousing and joyous celebration that ought to have you dancing in the aisles.' [Pete Hammond, Hollywood.com]
'This film is an utterly joyous experience and I cannot recommend it highly enough to anyone who enjoys musicals and/or Abba's music.' [IMDb]
'I simply can't imagine how "Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again" could be any better than it is. I loved it to pieces and I can't wait to go again! [Observer]
'"Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again" remains implausible, unlikely and utterly glorious. Who can ask for anything more, as they might sing themselves.' [We Live Entertainment]
An Academy Fund-Raiser - Admission: $15.00
