How to Build an Eames Shell Chair

First, a note:

Dear WordPress:

I wish you would let me embed Flash code in my blog. Other than that, everything is cool.

Thanks, Danielle.

So I can’t embed it, but check it out at ArchDaily, where I watched it.

The video is 8 minutes long, but if you’re a design nerd like me, you will be entranced. And shocked that they wear NO safety equipment. Ahhh, the Mad Men years…

OK, back to websites. Enjoy!

why is comic sans the hero at the font conference?

I guess thats a spoiler. This IS a pretty deep plot… It makes me chuckle though. Especially because everyone hates Comic Sans. Comic Sans is the Pauly Shore of the type world. OK, I’m done now.

Anyhoo, I am not quite smart enough to get it to embed, but you can watch it here!

Other news: First day at Kaizen was fab! A shift from my former routine, but I think it will work well. Learning new acronyms and all that jazz…

Also, we lost the first game of our double-header but won the second, and I had my best hit ever. Yes, it went over the infielders. I am a baseball genius.
