This was my result, 59 words per minute. <br><br>I am sure if I take it again, I can do a bit better.

<br><br><br>Two wrong.<br><br>Reminds me of a chick I knew in college who couldn't type. She paid somebody to do her papers. So, I asked, aren't you worried this could be a handicap when you start looking for work? She said, no joke, that not being able to type would save her from working as a secretary. <br><br>I can't imagine what she's doing for a living now. <br><br><br><br><br><br><br>[color:white]xx</font color=white>[color:blue]I always deserve it. Really.</font color=blue><br><br>

Much like my husband. He's a hunt and pecker. But he's a lot faster than you are. <br><br><br><br><br><br><br>[color:white]xx</font color=white>[color:blue]I always deserve it. Really.</font color=blue><br><br>

Since I have to look at the keyboard, I'm not very fast if I have to copy text.<br><br>But when I'm typing my thoughts extemporaneously—like now—I can probably go at about 60 WPM.<br><br>"This is not here."
