P.S. Heller should know better than to tarnish Coudal’s pages with a “foot mark” instead of a good ol’ opt-shift-]. Shame, shame, shame Steven!

Topic: Aaron Draplin vs David Nakamoto 11/16 / Conversation About The Match

I’m just getting around to looking thru the match, and the comments; however, I did research both designers on Thursday to “prepare.” I just was sidewinded on Friday re participation.

Heller is one of my faves, and Ed Benguiat gave me a signed copy of one of his Typeplay books for an “A” in class once.

After researching Draplin, I found his arrogance unappealing, and his own self-serving tailgate a turn-off. But in the end, I’d have to agree with most of you that he did drink his can of Whup Ass and it “served” him well.

Volley 8 was a very creative “written” comeback, but this isn’t a writing contest now, is it?

Even though I’ve become an “Everything west of the Hudson is not New York” snob, and I’m not a cheerleader for the Midwest (except the jewels of Ann Arbor and Chicago proper), I’d have to say Draplin won by a snowdrift capable of blocking an overpass on I-94!

I mean the game could have been over just with the first serve! Totally Draplin, (well written, too), and the ball could hit Nakamoto in the eye—the match then forfeited—and we’d all have been satisfied, me thinks.

Partial pet pecking order†: Horse trumps dog; dog trumps cat; cat trumps fish; fish trump hamsters; hamsters trump crickets; crickets trump NYC cockroaches.

†I purposely left parrots out since I’m an avid parrot parent and know that parrots trump everything, even chimps. But I’m biased to say the very least.

I wasn’t into anything until volley 4…this is going somewhere.

As an owner of several commercial software products supporting the alteration of images in PhotoShop, I am dismayed that I cannot run these plug-ins anymore now that I am using CS3. I am either stuck using what is supplied by Adobe, or upgrade my licenses. Everyone knows default filters are for chumps!
