The other day we got a $5 bill back in change, and noticed a big purple numeral 5 on the back. Sunam and I debated for several minutes whether or not it was real currency, then launched into a lively discussion of how cool the differnt Euro designs are, compared to US currency.
At work someone sent me this link http://www.typography.com/ask/showBlog.php?blogID=93 so I guess it was a real $5 bill.
Terrific video interview with Michael Bierut; topics range from Kubrick’s favorite font to the various cover designs of Salinger’s The Catcher in the Rye. There is a link below the video to a companion article from The Atlantic
So I am not a designer by training, and this is where my ignorance and outsider status come into embarrasing play… even though I’d seen interviews with him before, until reading the article I didn’t realize Beruit is one of the editors over at Design Observer, which is a source of all sorts of goodness. He talks about his book (which nobody bought me for Christmas) here.

We get many calls and emails with demands for updated pictures. We apologize for depriving fans of The Cuteness of their Nolan fix. We will try to do better in the future. Your wait has finally come to a glorious end, however, as there are many albums to peruse for new Nolan pictures. First, we added a few to the album Months six through nine. Second, we created an album of Nolan’s first Christmas trip. Finally, we have the most recent pics of Nolan in the album, Nine months through…, which we will continue to update for the final months of his first year. That’s right! His first birthday is just around the corner. Yikes!
I still have some stuff to figure out in order to post here regularly, but once I figure out my thoughts, I will post regularly. Well, that’s my story.
Nolan recently celebrated his half birthday (can you believe it?!), so it’s again time to upgrade his photo album. For post-half-birthday pics visit Six months through… and see how much Nolan (aka The Cuteness) has grown!
We realize Nolan’s album had been sadly lacking updates as of late (we apologize to his many fans). To make up for this lapse, we added pictures to his previous album Months three through six to fill in the gap. Enjoy!
Booyah! Check out our hack on the Parent Hacks blog… in case you don’t figure it out, Nolan is the one who spits up all the time.
The Ellis clan made a family trip to the Midwest. Check out pics of the journey in Midwest trip of September ‘07.
