i'll take a look, i'm currently really really annoyed with suitcase so if i can find a better font manager i'll happily switch.

that is also a very good one, but if i could find the damned image of the font (which i saw very recently, i know it ! i can see it in my mind !!! aaarrrg !!) i wouldn't need to find the font anymore...

It will end the day you sign that new contract for a new apartment away from those shums. On that very day, all those shums will disappear to start living near your new apartment.


sorry, I'm in a "glass is is half full" instead of a "glass is half empty" mood today!

Hmmm, I think there is some kind of law prohibiting you from tranquilizing toddlers....
