My husband and I got completely addicted to "American Idol" this season. We don't want to admit it, but we've been slowly turning into reality show freaks. When Tatiana Del Toro was introduced, I knew I wanted to keep watching her. Honestly, I wanted to see Simon critique her until she cracked into normalcy, but I wanted to watch the process.
I soon realized I actually liked watching her. I soon wanted to see Simon critique her and cut her down, but I didn't want her to change at all. Not to mention, she had a good voice. GOOD voice! Just because she was annoying, I don't think people give her voice enough credit. Even saying "her voice isn't actually terrible" is an understatement. It's powerful as hell. As a very proud Alto, I can completely respect that. My husband, on the other hand, was happy to see her leave, although he was on board with me about her voice.
But, when I found this the other day, I was so excited. This is completely perfect for her.
I have a thing for serifs. I could stare at serifs all day. If I saw a magazine with just pictures of letters with serifs, I'd buy it, rip out the pictures and (hopefully included) poster and hang them all on my walls, kissing them before I went to bed. I think it's the inner journalism dork in me I can't suppress.
(If you don't know what a serif is... This is typed with serifs; this is not. Notice there are no little extra lines on each letter -- kind of like "nubbins" that are missing on the sans serif text.)
But, I think even if you aren't as into fonts as I am, you'll still enjoy this video.
