The Gregg Group was founded 22 May 2004, prompted by the lack of online shorthand resources. As the primary use for shorthand — business and legal recording — has waned in recent decades, we generally acclaim the skill as a hobby or personal tool. The purpose of the group is to promote the use of Gregg systems of shorthand by providing advice to beginners, support for students, and an association of users of this efficient, attractive, and enjoyable method of writing.
This funny short story was taken from Gregg Advanced Dictation Simplified. I rewrote it in Series 90.

Love the reading material! Thanks for posting it.
Loved your shorthand penmanship, Carlos! Looks just like the Gregg platewriters! What combination of ink/pen/paper did you use here? It's very nicely done. And I'm enjoying the reading material you've posted for the later editions of Gregg– I can read most of these!
Read this yesterday, loved it! But I could not figure out the" stripling" in shorthand for the longest time. Then I re-read the title and decided to look up "stripling" and it was defined as "a young man" That was a wonderful surprise as I had transcribed stripling accurately, but was unaware of it's meaning.
