And I learned something new today.

I now know what Amigurumi is.

Thanks boing boing and wikipedia.

Amigurumi is the Japanese art of knitting or crocheting small stuffed animals and anthropomorphic creatures. The word is derived from a combination of the Japanese words ami, meaning crocheted or knitted, and nuigurumi, meaning stuffed doll.[1] Amigurumi are typically cute animals (such as bears, rabbits, cats, dogs, etc.), but can include artistic renderings, and inanimate objects endowed with anthropomorphic features. Amigurumi can be either knitted or crocheted. In recent years crocheted amigurumi are more popular and more commonly seen.

Heroine Movie Trailer

A font with a movie trailer? So rockstar.

Here's what fountain has to say about the new font:

A new typeface designed by Göran Söderström – Heroine. Inspired by the typeface Windsor, designed by Eleisha Pechey in 1905. Windsor is the typeface used in the titles of many Woody Allen movies. A modern interpretation of this rusty pearl is something that always have been missing in the major type libraries. But Heroine is not only an interpretation, it goes beyond that. With the addition of swashes and alternate letters in several styles it becomes very addicitve.

Last Suppers

I think this is a pretty cool subject manner. Photographer, James Reynolds' series titled "Last Suppers" documents former Death Row prisoners' requests for their last meal before execution.(Personally, I think this person could have done better. An olive? Really? That's all you got?)

My tray would have

the Blue Ribbon omakase,

Some red vines,

a fifth of Vodka,

a liter of club soda ,

ice

and 8 lime wedges.

In case you were wondering.
