ottoman's free zone

As i was writing it seemed brilliant, then when I reread it it sounded like crap

lol. most things in life seem that way. Any project I do, even writing an email, seems worse when I look at it months/years later.

Back in the 90s, one of the courses I took (for Mechanical Engineering 2-year degree) was Technical Writing. I submitted some of my projects from the class in a "Technical Writing contest" and I won.

That award helped me get a Summer internship job at the "Naval Undersea Warfare Center" in the publications department, basically helping to proof-read Scientists/Engineer's technical publications for grammer, punctuation etc.

So I always kinda prided myself on writing in a clear, logical manner.

Yet I read some of my old posts on IHUB, or read an old email, and I can't understand what the hell I'm trying to say lol!
