Here's one person who wishes now that he'd practiced his handwriting like his elementary teachers wanted him to. Thomas J. Love went to a bank in New Castle, Delaware, with a plan to rob it. He handed the clerk a note written on a deposit slip.

The teller, unable to decipher what was on the deposit slip, handed it back to Love to rewrite. Empty handed, he then fled the bank on foot.
After a description was provided, a New Castle County police officer located Love in the area of New Castle Avenue and Rodney Drive and took him into custody.

How can anybody know he wanted to rob the bank if nobody could read his writing?
