The Periodic Table of Typefaces

Since most of us who post/read this blog are designers of one kind or another, I thought this to be quite appropriate to post. I love it and wish I had full size poster for my wall. Yes I'm that dorky. This was created by Squidspot. They also have lots of other neat ideas/designs. Happy Friday and enjoy your weekend!

Attempt FAILED

I spend 8 hours a day infront of a computer working but while I work I have cnn/live going on my screen the whole time. I don't know if I just need the background noise or I just want to stay generally informed. Most of the news is bad news, but every so often you get those golden nuggets. Today's nugget was a bit sad but I just couldn't stop laughing.

This dude attempted to commit suicide by jumping off Niagra Falls. A nice way to go out right? SIKE! Not only did his suicide attempt FAIL but because of the force of the fall authorities found dude without any cloths! AAAAAHAHAHAHA! Is something wrong with me for having laughed at this? I mean this news report was literally the high light of my day!

BOYCOTT BLOCKBUSTER



If you rent from Blockbuster, STOP. This is the last straw, I've had it with them, and I'm calling for a group boycott. First they made a stink about adding my sister to my account, then they demanded that I hand over my bank account so they can fully charge me for any late videos, they hiked up their rental fees to a ridiculous amount and THEN I got a headache after getting in a fight with the store manager over the weekend. So again, if you rent from Blockbuster, don't! Explore Redbox [they're awesome], Netflix, or your local video rental. For the most part it's only $1 to rent and the local redbox isn't gonna be rude to you.

I should be Happy

I should be happy about the snow but I am so sad. I had to put Frecks to sleep on Saturday!!! I can't believe I had to put two dogs to sleep within a year and a half from basically the same thing!!!!!!! He fought the whole time he was on the table-he hated anyone touching his paws. After the second attempt I ran out of the room. I still look for him in all of his places in the house and hear the regular house sounds tht I guess I assumed were him and then realize it's not. Well it will take time I guess-he was my best friend and protector since I was 10 years old.
