Somehow I don’t think this is what Betty Friedan had in mind…

Repost from Facebook – Re: National Health care Debate
I currently have extremely great health insurance. I’m lucky – but, even with what I have, there are problems. Getting our “fantastic” insurance company to pay Lars’ hospital bills was like pulling teeth. 2 years later, we’re still trying to parse out what they should cover, failed to cover, refused to cover, the list goes [...]
A quick one while he’s away
Only 4 days until my sweetheart is home. I’m excited. Elated. Unbelievably ecstatic. I can’t believe both how quickly the time has flown (now that it’s almost over – I had a completely different take a month ago) and how slowly it’s dragged on. One thing is certain – I would not have made it [...]
There’s no such thing – My 25(ish) top played songs on iTunes
It’s kind of an imperfect science, because I’m not sure if these are just plays on my laptop or if they include Mary Kate (iPod) and Peggy (iPhone) as well. Given that they sync – you’d think they would be, but…. I don’t know whether to be amused or embarrassed that my own feeble rap [...]

Where has this movie been hiding all my life?
Wow – here’s a short “Making of” and “How it got lost” documentary… Part I Part 2
This post is mostly for Melissa, but applies to all my font-nerd homies
I think I’m a little bit in love…..marksimonson.com I mean, really… The church bulletins are a bit problematic, partly because they are typeset (the ones I remember were mimeographed). Palatino (1950) existed, but didn’t really catch on in popularity in the U.S. until around 1970. And Snell Roundhand (1966) is definitely premature. This feels more [...]
