Here's a link to the Golden Gate drunken swim letter that Violet mentioned:

Wow - check out the trailer for the City of Ember movie that Miss C cited.

What do you get when you combine:

* Children of Men
* The Island
* 12 Monkeys
* City of Lost Children
* Dark City

Our favorites now are "eggplant and garlic" and "anchovy with broccoli."

We also put Sriracha sauce on our pizza a lot.

Lick the pole!

No namecheck for me in the comments, yet? Wow!

My father was a classically trained graphic artist (RISD '65) and ran a commercial art studio in Boston for more than 20 years. In his world, if you wanted a different font you either had to pick it out of a book and pay a company to "set" the type for you - or you had to draw the font yourself. Tools like those above were the regular playthings of my youth.

Mr. Notfat:

I almost want to delete your comment because it is so offensive - not just to we fat people, but to all decent people.

Please keep that level of vitriol to yourself here. Thanks.

The same goes for you, Mr. Pride.

Let's try to keep the acute assholism to a minimum here.

I'm fat - and I hate myself.

I live in a tiny house with my wife and teenage daughter. I have endured countless episodes of this show - and many others - that I would normally have chosen to avoid. Indeed, I find this particular show to be "cheesy." I'm sorry if you're offended by how I feel about a given television show, Scott, but them's the breaks.

I'm not fond of the screaming woman judge.

Thanks for catching that. It wasn't laziness - it was a force of habit. I'll fix it right now in the post.

I'll show you mine if you show me yours, nielo.

Here come the hater-trolls!

But, Cobras are normally kept as pets there and the family lets them run freely.

I call bullshit on that one.

Gross.
