I see NOTHING wrong with that conclusion.
Speaking of chicken scratch, I never got accused of that. In fact, even today people still ask me if I went to Catholic school because of my handwriting. I didn't, and my handwriting is not as good as it used to be, but I think it was the result of being a very focused student. I wanted to be good at everything but probably ended up not so much at anything. I do know one thing though, that mindset kept me out of a lot of trouble and probably from having some fun too. I guess I make up for all that now by being NOTHING but trouble.....lol
