Arial Vs Helvetica
More likely than not you are viewing this site on a Windows PC. If so you will notice the banner above uses Arial. Arial is rip clone of Helvetica a timeless classic that is by its very nature expensive to license. Microsoft knows its customers, these are the people that laugh at ‘hilarious’ clip art and think using Comic Sans gives them ‘personality’. So MS hired Monotype to make alternatives to all the popular postscript type faces, including Helvetica.
I hardly ever get to see the real thing, so its very nice to have the differences pointed out.
Arial is like Helvetica’s unfortunate twin, that through some accident got a few scars. Still retaining the general beauty, but not nearly as impressive as Hell-uva-tika.

It's good to know they are out there looking out for me

Argh! Grrr!! Argh!
The b****y boyfriend of the woman who owned the flat before me took out loans from my address and never updated the details. So after 18 months I get a stack of letters from one of two addresses. In curiosity in case it concerned me I opened one of each. Low and behold, one is a warning and one is a note of pending litigation! Can these people not actually check who the own of the property might be?
I phone the first up and they were fine, I can't get through to the second. I am a naturally nervous person and this has done my nerves no good at all. I'm really pee'd off now.
I work hard to keep out of debt, I don't buy hi-def tellies or other frivolities because I hate having debt. Why don't people have the self control to just make do with what they have or only borrow what they can pay back? It makes me MAD! why should I have to deal with his lack of self control.
