Too late?

Thought for the day from the Acoustic Cafe music festival in Alabama:

“It’s too late for me to die young.” — Todd Snider

A real museum relic…

Couldn't think of anyone else but my mentor Bill Neville while at the Allman Brothers Museum. Searched for the perfect picture! And it's from the one of the most memorable places my byline graced the pages, the award winning The George-Anne! Jan. 1971From Teresa Southern: A George Anne newspaper page I designed as a youth is displayed as a museum artifact at Allman Brothers Big House Museum in Macon.

You know you getting old when what you worked in your early days is now on display in a museum. Loved this idea that the guys in the band might have had this posted on the walls of the Big House as remnants of tape suggest.

Rock on!

Are you my type?

Until I saw this video, I thought Bo Doni was a redneck typographer.

More Font fun: Tweet from @FactHive: Students who study with text in difficult-to-read fonts like Comic Sans get better grades.

Comic Sans font a study aid? Tweets sometimes are not to be believed.

Show me the research, baby.

If difficult to read enhances learning, use ornamental Old English.
