TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
In "Kitchen Man" (one of my personal favorites), Bessie Smith sings
that her beloved's "jelly roll is firm and hard."
I doubt Mrs. All-Fruit would have made that connection, though.
Surely anyone capable of that kind of free association would be
immune to "the vapors."
