How do you enter a hall and not sound like a jailer rattling his keys

Easy they have very different sounds from keys and if you have jingel bobs on they real sound different. besides western spurrs can be very decorative.

Suddenly a sickeningly cheerful refugee from Seven Brides for Seven Brothers alarms Lancer and the other patrons by dancing through the door with little bells on his spurs singing "Jingle boots, jingle boots, jingle all the-! BLAM!
The fellow drops with a hole right between his eyes, fired from the very farthest dark corner of the bar and grill.
A man who wears the Gunslinger Patch of the ancient Star League slightly moves a spurred boot as he calmly replaces his .44-40 custom conversion 1861 Colt Navy open-top frame single-action revolver in its holster.
"Dang Broadway Cowboys."
The Gunslinger wears two spurs, but only one makes any noise when he walks. That way he can walk normally and his enemies will still hear the ominously slow and measured jing, jing, jing of the Gunslinger coming for 'em.
The Gunslinger's deepest, darkest secret? He never learned to ride a horse.

Ummm, not sure how he'd be shot seeing as there's no weapons allowed in the B&G.

Alright! I'm not the only one with disgraphcea here! Mine's not as obvious (not to mention that the form I have limits ones ability to express their ideas on paper) but if you look really close you can tell...

Have either of you guys gotten any help for your disgraphia? I work with kids that have this and other difficulties, and I know in most cases a person can learn to adjust and compensate for it to where most people would never know the problem existed in the first place.
So far in my training and experience, I have never heard of a problem so bad that a person was unable to use spellchecker. Having trouble expressing ideas in written form sounds more like an underdeveloped skill that many Americans have simply because multiple choice tests are much more prevalent than essay and written response in public education (though this trends is starting to reverse itself in many areas because of this problem with poor writing skills), but I'll let the experts make this call.
If you need help, it is available at a number of places. Local community colleges, libraries, or public schools, should have a program available, or at least be able to help you find an organization that does have an active program. The costs will depend on where you go, but in many places there is at least one place that provides it at low cost or even for free. Good luck in your search.

Ronin, yes I have gotten help, and when it comes to American children being lazy I agree with you totally everyday at school all I hear is complaining in my Advanced comp class and it's stupid little things like, "Does it really have to be two pages?" or "Can we use a larger font?" The thing with me is that if I'm telling someone what to write down I don't have a problem but if it's me doing the writing than I struggle, or atleast used to.

Good for you. The more you practice with writing, the easier it will get for you. Just like lifting weights, it takes time and effort to build strength, and if you don't keep at it you'll lose what you've gained.
Every time one of my students whines about having to write something or take a test with a written portion, I offer to trade them tests. They can take my graduate school comprehensive exams (a 6 hour writing ordeal consisting of 3 separate tests each of which is a different "tell me everything you know about x") and I'll take their test. They can do my 10-15 page essay test three times a semester if I can take their multiple choice tests. Yes, I'm not exactly at a big name graduate school (hell, claiming middle sized name status is kinda presumptious for this school), so the assignments aren't as hard as at the bigger named schools, but they are still hefty enough when you have a full college and work schedule (I point this out whenever the kids complain about homework).
So far, I've had no takers, and oddly enough the students are suddenly grateful for their much easier tests. At least until the next time we give them a written assignment...

I thought about throwing the Nachos, but they wouldn't have dropped him.
