Stuff to come: HONGKONG!!!
as stated above, I will be leaving for a trip with my family to Hong Kong and Manila this Thursday... very eeearrrly in the morning (like 6...). Tomorrow I will be headed to a memorial mass for Adam Towler, and I'm working my butt off tonight to finish the calligraphy piece I want to send to his family: it's in gothic font, and has the following quote from Julie Burchill: "Tears are sometimes an inappropriate response to death. When a life has been lived completely honestly, completely successfully, or just completely, the correct response to death's perfect punctuation mark is a smile."
I plan to have the piece be a lone square of dense text in the middle of the page, in black. I chose gothic font because of the weeping serifs, which I thought would make a somber effect. I'll post a picture... maybe tonight.
