Pet Peeve #699742 - Comic Sans
Why do some people choose to format every email that they send out in a Comic Sans font? I just don’t get it. Is it to amuse me? Do they think it makes a better impression?
Using Comic Sans as a default font for email is the equivalent of one of those cheesy Sit Coms that punch the laugh track button after every line. It just isn’t right.

Republicans pimping Hillary
I went to the Republican Party’s official website, http://www.rnc.org/, and was blown away by what I saw. Nothing but pictures of Hillary. Seriously! I went to that site for a quick review of the folks that the RNC still had in the running for the nomination - and the site looks like a Hillary Clinton supporters site. There are grand total of 5 images of candidates on the RNC homepage - and each and every one of those images is Hillary Clinton. Nothing on Obama. Nothing on McCain. Nothing on any of the other candidates, whether in the running or recently dropped out. NOT A SINGLE REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE SHOWN OR MENTIONED ON THE REPUBLICAN NATIONAL COMMITTEE WEBSITE, AND IT IS SUPER TUESDAY for goodness sake! What are they thinking?!? Below is a screenshot of the RNC.ORG homepage as it appeared on Super Tuesday, 2008 (I have added the big red numbers as a count of the Hillary images):

Note: #4 might be hard to see, but it is a little rubber stamp of Hillary’s face, with the slogan “Access Denied”. The article has to do with a petition to see Hillary’s library. (?)
