Keyboarding Skills

So, for my Medical Front Office class we have to do a typing software every class for an hour. You know, the cheesey program you were forced to do in middle school in any computer essential class... where they have like an overly enthusiastic animated keyboard with a big smiley face say things like, "Watch me as I find the letter Q!!!"

(and of course you do an over-exagerated "OH MY GOODNESS! THERE IT IS!" in response)

So, I was working on it the other day, not really paying attention to what I was typing... and I realized the sentence I had just typed was...

"Mae slid on the ice, jumped the curb, and broke her thumb."

Really.

Now, this sounds like a pretty bad accident. And she walked away with nothing but a broken thumb? And of all the injuries Mae could have gotten, she broke her thumb?

I'm so not impressed by their lack of imagination.
