Say What You Will About Me... I Know Cool!

I posted in my entry yesterday that I've become obsessed with the P22 Foundry deck of Typography playing cards from 2004 - well, I just wanted to post what got me moving in that direction.

I saw this web site first and was blown away by how beautiful these cards are - then I went to the designer's web site and I became even more impressed.  Creating these cards was her graduate project and an effort to simplify and create a dynamic way to view the basics of Typography.  Not only are these lovely and functional, they're actually educational!

Now, I realize not everyone who visits my site is as interested in Typography as I am, but I had to share... and on the off chance that someone would like to buy these cards, I'll encourage you to contact Michelle (the designer) to place an order.  They're not currently in print, but she promises it will happen this year... I'm giddy at the prospect*.
*And I assure you, when I get my deck it will be posted on here!
I told you I know cool!

Anyway, I'm off to class now.  I'm currently without the internet at my apartment (again), but it looks like I may have found a buyer for my Jeep and I've nearly wrapped up my lesson plans for this quarter.  I'm still working on the job part, but I'm optimistic about my prospects... I think things are coming along nicely in anticipation of my move (just four weeks from tomorrow!).
