Marcia and I have this on going joke between us, when we see movies and there's a one line character, the "what if I was an actor, and that was my only significant role". They don't even need to have lines, just be in the movie significantly, somehow. Look for it, there are literally thousands of these roles. - Relative readability / Wilson Miner
learning to use bigger type: "Actually it’s not that big, once you use it you start thinking “Damn. Everything else is small”. Physically 16pt is as big as 11pt in print. Huh? Yes, the screen is usually further away, which at such small distances, has a huge impact."

Hi, my name is Ed. I’m a graphic designer who lived in L.A. I quit my job, sold my car, rented out my house and moved to Mexico. Along the way, I learned how to surf and fell in love. This blog is my story. In these pages I write about and photograph my daily experience. I also post about things I find interesting: art, design, photography, music, tech, etc...
