Dwayne F. on June 21, 2013 at 4:07 am I have it on good authority that the Optimas are not to be trusted. The Red Menace is as seductive as she is deadly. I hope Spain is amazing and sun-drenched. Reply

L Casey on June 21, 2013 at 9:38 pm Ah. I vaguely remember reading that, but had completely forgotten about it until this second. Now I'm even more excited. Good luck! Reply
Bill M on June 22, 2013 at 4:20 am Congratulations on the great job on the Optima! Great looking machine. I like your innovations like using a coat hanger to make a part. Reply
Vikram on June 22, 2013 at 9:27 pm That's one beautiful typewriter. The choice profanity, I think, is the key tool to fixing anything. Have an awesome trip! Reply

In my opinion, Optima needs a red rose!
That would be glorious.
