But (you knew that was coming) the intense Sandusky-Register editor, whose desk was in front of mine in the newsroom, was a One Finger & Elbow typist. His other hand was preoccupied chewing his nails. It was a masterful performance: tap-tap-tap — elbow hit the space bar – tap-tap..etc…etc.
His wierdness reached its zenith the day his 12-year-old daughter and one of the 8-year-old twins disappeared under Lake Erie’s ice and he came back from the tragedy to writer the headline page-one story.
Tat-tap-tap — elbow — tap-tap-tap.
I quit that newsroom soon after.
